lookatme VS mdp

However, I also use lookatme for terminal presentations written in markdown.

https://github.com/d0c-s4vage/lookatme if you're a command line guy like me, this is my favorite slides presentation system inside the console.

Let's explore the best open source tools to transform markdown files to fully fledged presentations. - Reveal.js: https://revealjs.com/ - Lookatme: https://github.com/d0c-s4vage/lookatme - Marp: https://marp.app/ - Slidev: https://sli.dev/

Today I discovered the https://github.com/d0c-s4vage/lookatme repository and thought the project was really cool! Sure there's some security implications with the "terminal" extension (among other things), but if you know what you're doing, the tool is really interesting :-)

Oh sweet, I didn't know there were so many. I pretty much only saw sli.dev and lookatme. Thanks so much for sharing!

It depends on what you are presenting. I found [mdp](https://github.com/visit1985/mdp) to be very useful when presenting a tech talk. It is easy to copy and paste from the source material, it can be done all via the terminal, and it views well as a README on github.

Here is an example of a presentation I gave:

It is absolutely possible. Use Lynx for web browsing, use TMUX for split screen, use BC for calculator, use KHAL for calendar and of course use RTV for Reddit. :-) Here is a great list of CLI apps: https://github.com/agarrharr/awesome-cli-apps Here are some of my favorites though: - https://github.com/GothenburgBitFactory/timewarrior - https://github.com/IonicaBizau/idea - https://github.com/jeffkowalski/geeknote - https://github.com/insanum/sncli - https://github.com/visit1985/mdp - https://github.com/astefanutti/decktape - https://github.com/insanum/gcalcli - https://github.com/pimutils/khal - https://dianne.skoll.ca/projects/remind/ - https://github.com/zquestz/s - https://github.com/yudai/gotty - https://github.com/axiros/terminal_markdown_viewer - https://github.com/chubin/wttr.in - https://github.com/schachmat/wego - https://github.com/tldr-pages/tldr

I use pandoc to convert markdown to powerpoint decks, it's a great workflow as you can preview and tweak the content and then apply the firm theme before the presentation.

If all you need is text on your slides, then mdp could be fun! I used it during an interview a while back.

Hmmm.. interesting. I used mdp a few times - perhaps I should give this one a whirl.

Have you ever heard of terminal based presentations with mdp?
