So how would you like to install such a tool on a corporate device? Is docker an option In your case? Is downloading and reviewing the scaffold script sufficient (before actually s…

In fact, there already is such a (okay, rather short) section in the README [0]. But I plan to incorporate the other tools mentioned here. Only the feature comparison table with al…

I had to use gitpitch for one presentation only, so correct me if I am wrong, but with gitpitch you cannot see the resulting slides before you push them to the repo, right? We had …

It gets developed on MacOS, and is tested also on Linux. It should run with docker on Windows, too; although that wasn't tested yet...

A sync to S3 is a nice idea. And it is completely independent from the generator you use... so I would see that functionality as a utility command, called when everything else is f…

markdeck can create diagrams and charts on-the-fly (graphviz, ditaa, plantuml, a2s, Vega-lite). And it can export the slides as PDF or as standalone HTML file. Plus out-of-the-box …

"text-only" here means, that the _source_ of the slides is text-based (in contrast to the classic graphical tools like powerpoint or pages). the resulting slides can be as colourfu…

markdeck supports mathjax[0], might that be enough for your use case? An example can be found in the showcase[1]... [0]: https://www.mathjax.org [1]: https://arnehilmann.github.io/…
