  • markdeep-slides

    Build presentation slides with Markdeep and present them right in your browser.

    Very nice!

    A while ago, I’ve built something similar on top of the in-browser Markdown-plus-diagrams renderer Markdeep: https://github.com/doersino/markdeep-slides

    Convert presentations written for Deckset to be compatible with conversion via pandoc and reveal.js to HTML

    Awesome, one of the pain points I have with Deckset is not having an iOS version. The other one is exporting to an HTML compatible mode (to keep animated GIFs… animated). I wrote my own tool (https://github.com/rberenguel/haskset) to leverage Pandoc and make a reveal.js export look like Deckset, but that's not ideal (basically, I don't have feature parity and any time I use a new feature I have to implement it…).

  • zim-desktop-wiki

    Main repository of the zim desktop wiki project

    For the same thing, I use https://zim-wiki.org and its built in slide exporter. This allows me to keep my content in the same "notebook" for a nice all-in-one experience. It uses the "S5" system, which, I don't know how well that's been maintained, but the CSS was easy enough to modify.

  • rjsmake

    Use Markdown to generate a Reveal.js presentation in minutes.

    This method works well. I made a template repo to standardize the process: https://github.com/13rac1/rjsmake

  • InfluxDB

    Access the most powerful time series database as a service. Ingest, store, & analyze all types of time series data in a fully-managed, purpose-built database. Keep data forever with low-cost storage and superior data compression.
