Screen recording to gif

How can I create a short screen recording and save it as a gif on a mac?

I want to capture a short screen recording (capturing only part of the screen) and save it as a gif so that I can share it online. I have a mac running Catalina.

How the hell do I do it?

Best answer: the giphy app does exactly this in one step.

Just adding another option for anyone looking – I've used LICEcap for ages and it's been great.

Not sure about the Giphy app's features, but this allows you to pause recording and has an option to show mouse clicks in the recording, so it's handy for little tutorial snippets.
