Sent – simple plaintext presentation tool
Eh there are loads of these based on Markdown that are much better. I think revealjs is the most popular, but I like remarkjs:

There's a list of them here:

Lectureapp.io – Online Markdown-to-anything* editor
Thanks for your comment, u/legitEngin. Indeed, I do see a slew of Markdown-to-presentation plugins (this work was inspired by one at https://github.com/gnab/remark), and I hope I can inspire more instructors to consider using plain text to organize their work instead of lugging around heavy PPTs.

Which software do you use when creating presentations?

One of my proudest open source contributions is also to excalidraw. It's a small tweak. Since about a year ago, chrome will re-save the .png to disk when you ctrl+s or cmd+s (with the embedded scene, and without prompting for a location). It gives you a really nice workflow for documentation and remark-style slides for presentations.

Proof of concept for md > ppt app
It's a good idea, which is why it's already been done. That's not to say you shouldn't finish it! You might improve on the idea, or it might just be a good learning experience.

Has anyone ever made a "html" presentation instead of a "PowerPoint" presentation?
I've given presentations in ReMark before, which is basically "markdown -> web slideshow" using a JS blob. Worked alright for simple presentations without complicated formatting needs, and loads all the images on the fly, so it implicitly picks up any re-generated figures. It also made it very easily to collaborate on presentations via GitHub, since the whole "presentation" was a short text file.

Ask HN: Anyone use a code to mindmap/flowchart tool?
I was happy to find out recently that there is a way to make Mermaid diagrams WYSIWYG / drag and drop editable that the open source https://excalidraw.com has and did I mention it's open source!? With a LLM, you can go full loop back to Mermaid again after a few rounds of manual editing. "What a time to be alive!"

Ask HN: What development tools are you using for your current project?
I'm working on a personal project and found myself looking for an alternative to Postman/Insomnia this morning. This made me realize i've been using the same tools for so long for work (mobile development, finance) that this project may be a good time to try out some new things.
Here are a few tools that i've been using lately that I really enjoy:
https://pocketbase.io/ - A dead-simple self-hosted firebase/supabase-like "backend in a box" using golang and sqlite. So far i've been really impressed. I've gone the route of extending the base offering with more go code and am really enjoying the experience.
https://excalidraw.com/ - An open source whiteboarding tool. Slick to use and after learning some keybinds I've gotten pretty fast at throwing together diagrams to explain things to people on my team. The killer piece though is that the filetype is just json, so I can source control my diagrams. Even better, their "export to png" function has a box to embed the json data _into_ the png, allowing me to slap the diagram in places that only accept images (think confluence) and still be able to change the diagram later if needed. 10/10.
https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/ci/ - Gitlab's CI/CD toolset is really impressive, and I've gotten really intimate with it's deeper features over the past year. I'd be curious though to hear from someone who's familiar with it vs it's competitors.
