What is GitPitch?
GitPitch is a markdown presentation service for everyone on Git. You can use it to promote, pitch or present absolutely anything using the tools you already know and love - Markdown + Git.
The service introduces a new convention for Git users, called PITCHME.md. The GitPitch server turns PITCHME.md markdown files found within any public or private repo into online and offline, interactive slideshows.
GitPitch is an open source project so you can fork, clone, and modify the source. You can find detailed build instructions here. You can also submit bug, feature and pull-requests on this repo. If you like this project please show your support with a GitHub star.
Your support is much appreciated. Cheers, David ❤️.
What is GitPitch Pro?
GitPitch Pro is the GitPitch service hosted on gitpitch.com.
GitPitch Pro offers a wide range of free and enhanced subscription features, including GitPitch Desktop for local development, live previews, and presenting directly on your Linux, Windows, or OSX desktop.
GitPitch Pro is also available as GitPitch Enterprise for on-premises deployment with seamless integration for GitHub Enterprise, GitLab, Bitbucket, GitBucket, Gitea, and Gogs servers.
GitPitch Enterprise is delivered using Docker, the worlds leading software containerization platform.
Is GitPitch for you?
If you ever find yourself needing to present a concept, design, library, framework, product, service, training materials, or educational course work:
- To colleagues, clients or customers
- At meetups or conferences
- At training events or teaching sessions
Then GitPitch is for you. Simply capture your ideas in Markdown and let GitPitch automatically turn those ideas into compelling, responsive, online and offline slideshow presentations.
How does GitPitch work?
GitPitch presentations are powered by the amazing reveal.js presentation framework. But with GitPitch there is nothing to download. Nothing to install. All you need is your favorite text editor. And an account on GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket. Or a self-hosted instance of GitHub Enterprise, GitLab CE, GitBucket, Gitea, or Gogs.
No more Keynote. No more PowerPoint. Just Markdown. Then git-commit and push on any branch within a public GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, GitBucket, Gitea, or Gogs repo.
If you want to avoid the git-push-preview cycle during development, consider activating a GitPitch Pro subscription that will give you access to GitPitch Desktop. GitPitch Desktop supports local development, live previews, and presenting directly on your Linux, Windows, or OSX desktop. Desktop works offline so you can too. Which is prefect for long-haul flights, or when you take the stage for live presentations.
GitPitch slideshow presentations are compelling
Each slideshow presentation is beautifully rendered, fully responsive, and highly interactive with a rich set of features including:
- Markdown slides
- Code and GIST slides
- Image and Video slides
- Math Notation and Chart slides
- Fragment slides
See the Kitchen Sink Slideshow Presentation for a live demonstration of GitPitch slideshow features.
GitPitch slideshow presentations are customizable
Choose between six distinct visual themes:
Or further customize the look and feel of your slideshow presentations using background images, your own logo and even custom css.
GitPitch slideshow presentations speak code fluently
Step-through static-code blocks or the complete source-code from any file in the repo, line-by-line or section-by-section, from directly within any slideshow presentation using code-presenting.
GitPitch slideshow presentations are speaker-ready
GitPitch supports a speaker notes window that can be opened for any GitPitch online or offline presentation. The speaker notes window shows the current slide, provides a preview of the upcoming slide, and also includes a timer that helps keep track of time once you launch the presentation.
GitPitch slideshow presentations are modular
Create and deliver content and course materials as a series of slideshow presentations using modular markdown and shared assets (css, images, etc.) in a single git repo.
GitPitch slideshow presentations are social
GitPitch slideshow presentations are designed for sharing. You can:
- View any GitPitch presentation at its public URL
- Promote any GitPitch presentation using a GitHub badge
- Embed any GitPitch presentation within a blog or website
- Share any GitPitch presentation on Twitter, LinkedIn, etc
- Print any GitPitch presentation as PDF document
- Download and present any GitPitch presentation offline
Support for these social features can be found in the presentation menus.
GitPitch slideshow presentations just work
GitPitch requires no sign-up. And no configuration. Just add PITCHME.md ;)
The GitPitch Wiki provides a detailed How-To that walks you through getting started, building, customizing, and sharing your GitPitch slideshow presentations.
