This is really nice, especially all the integrations. I've been using slides.com for a while, and I may switch to this. But, one feature that would be amazing would be the ability to upload to an S3 bucket. Bonus points for creating a public bucket configured correctly to view the slides. It's annoying to have to carry every possible type of dongle and fight with A/V issues at random places when you need to show a de…

I use https://surge.sh/ to host my reveal.js presentations for free, images and all. Examples: https://marketing-slides.surge.sh

That looks really interesting.

How is this better than https://pandoc.org/MANUAL.html#producing-slide-shows-with-pa... ? Oh! You've got other yummy things rolled in there like graphviz and more. Thanks! I've got an important presentation coming up on Thursday, I'll give this a go!

maybe important/interesting for you: the pdf export.

pandoc can do pdfs too (via beamer)

FYI: Slideshow (S9) is another free (open source) alternative offering themes / template packs for reveal.js, bespoke.js, impress.js ("prezi-style"), s5, s6, shower, and more. See http://slideshow-s9.github.io and https://github.com/slideshow-templates

Shameless plug: Being a lecturer, I wrote something similar years ago: https://github.com/munen/p_slides

p_slides doesn’t have any dependency that doesn’t run in the browser and its files can be checked into SCM which makes collaboration easy.

This looks cool. Looking forward to give it a try. For years I've been using Deckset[0] for all my presentations. Being able to just edit a text file to write and update slides is a massive advantage. I usually export them as pdf, which 99% of conferences are happy with. A big bonus is that you can now version control your slides, allow them to get forked, etc. If you're curious to see what those slides look like, ch…

I love Deckset-- using it is like having presentation creation superpowers. But since it's OSX-only, I've moved to GitPitch, which is cross-platform and has the added benefit of hosting the slides.

why use this over marp? https://yhatt.github.io/marp/

Or mdx-deck? https://github.com/jxnblk/mdx-deck

I'm not trying to poo on the OP or Marp. I'm actually interested in using a project like these and would be keen to see some kind of "why x over y" section in the readme.
