Something cool I’ve done with reveal.js slides: it’s just a web page, so why not embed an iframe? Instead of putting a slide that says “Now for a live demo!” and switching over to an editor, why not just embed an interactive editor? For example, here’s a slide from a presentation where I was showing off some fun features we had built into Sorbet’s[1] LSP editor support: https://sorbet.run/talks/RubyConf2019/#/18 The…
reveal.js was first released in 2011. A few years later I also launched a visual editing environment for reveal.js called Slides (slides.com). It has some pretty unique features targeted at developers, like a built-in CSS editor, access to the HTML source, and stepped line-by-line code highlighting. http://slides.com/news/developers
It’s been really great finding a sustainable way to continue working on open source (reveal.js) thanks to the revenue from the proprietary editor (Slides).
Can anyone recommend a realtime remote presentation solution? That is, something that updates the slides for the viewers as well, to use instead of sharing a screen with slides.
The official reveal.js platform at slides.com also support remote presenting, streamed to any number of viewers. More info and screenshots at https://help.slides.com/knowledgebase/articles/333924-presen...

I tend to think that page-based presentation is becoming a thing of the past. I usually write a big sprawling one-page HTML, magnify it, and do a presentation by gradually scrolling them. The advantages are obvious: - No need to tweak the content to fit the page boundary. - Highly accessible (adjustable to any screen). - No JS. - All figures are in SVGs. - Can also support printing (just insert CSS page break). - (ed…

Been using it since around 2013 for all sorts of presentations, from college to work to conference talks. Thanks for the great work!
I’m a big fan of reveal.js via reveal-md: https://github.com/webpro/reveal-md . Makes it very easy to quickly create good looking slides without clicking around GUIs.

Truly a versatile, well-made script.
Thanks for making it!

If you want to code something similar though, my approach has been using Svelte.
Svelte is a framework for building user interfaces that uses a build step to compile your code. The syntax and API is awesome to work with and the first proof of concept took me from Markdown to a working slide deck in maybe 30 minutes. The pages are mostly pre rendered HTML with a small chunk of JS on top. Not the same great UX but... I will get there.
Have a look at my own experiments with Markdown to slide decks here https://www.fictionboard.com/demos where I show how decks can be used for storytelling and immersion in TTRPGs.
I'll probably finish a demo of markdown based interactive fiction and RPG character sheets this week. And I'll expose the syntax :-)
