The basic idea

Write your presentations in a text editor.

• No fancy WYSIWIG editor
• No hand-written HTML
• Just text (Markdown)
• Publish by pushing via git.

Separate slides with ***.

How it works

Slidedown parses Markdown, then splits up the HTML into slides by splitting at every <HR> tag.

---

How it works

Every slide has a layout which is inferred by the elements making up that slide.

---

For example, this slide has an <h1> and an <h2>

So Slidedown infers that the layout should be like this

Pros

• easy
• saves time
• looks great

Cons

• none?

---

Navigation

You can navigate left/right through the slides using the keyboard.

You can also click on either side of the screen, or use swipe gestures on mobile devices.

---

How to use it

• Make changes
• Add you markdown file to the top of this file (to get a link)
• docker-compose up -d
• Navigate to localhost:8080, change code, reload. Have fun.
