Pretty cool! Can I run this via Docker? Can I use it to open remote .md files?
We can run Fusuma on Node Docker image.

#13Maybe I missed it, but there doesn't seem to be an explanation for the name. I think software that use clever names should explain why. In this case, fusuma are traditional Japanese sliding doors. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fusuma

I wouldn't say we are entitled to an explanation of why an open source project is titled any more than we are entitled to the project being open source in the first place.

#14I’m surprised no one’s mentioned pandoc by now. It’s a Swiss army knife that among other things makes slides from Markdown documents and lets you pick from a number of JS templates or Latex/Beamer. Converting Markdown to PDF slides is just a simple-ish oneliner away.
And terrific for a whole number of other use cases, too - including but not limited to Markdown Word, Epub conversion, HTML conversion and endless others. I find myself turning to it all the time.

It's not about entitlement; if the purpose of a name isn't to give people an easy way to remember something, what good is it?
If the developer wanted to increase interest in the project, explaining the name could only further this goal.

You're right of course. It's just as someone who struggles with naming projects, I often get annoyed when I see comments on HN focusing on naming things rather than the cool work that has been shared and donated to the community. However on reflection, on this occasion my comment was unfair.

#18Disappointed there's no built executable. I'm not into web development, so I don't have npm or yarn handy. Seems like a missed opportunity; a binary would open this project to a larger community.

If it's built with nodejs you won't be able to make a binary without packaging the whole node/npm with it.
For standalone binary Golang is a better choice but that probably wasn't in scope for the developer who wrote it.
