I've played a bit with plain TeX last year[1] because I wanted to find an alternative to do PDF slides using a simple text-based formatting. Deckset is cool but I can't customize much of the layout, and I don't love HTML-based solutions. I don't love Beamer either because you have to write a lot of ceremony for a single slide, and most styles feel very "old" (lots of side/top bars). Here's an example of what you can do using the `lecturer` package: https://twitter.com/evacchi/status/738018829905887232 https://twitter.com/evacchi/status/738018829905887232 the only problem with plain TeX is that there is no good listings package [1] https://github.com/evacchi/lecturer-playground/ https://github.com/evacchi/lecturer-playground/
