Ask HN: What's the Best Tool to Create Slides Using a Markup Language
Something like revealjs, but maybe richer or easier for someone who doesn't know much CSS
- Libbum 8y agoRather than using reveal.js, perhaps consider the GUI version at slides.com? Beamer is a great tool as well, there are some really nice themes for it. My favourite is Metropolis: https://github.com/matze/mtheme https://github.com/matze/mtheme The markup is Latex, so you'll need a latex toolchain for that.
- konradb 8y agoSimilar in approach (in that it can use Markdown) but Deckset.app for OSX also incorporates a GUI, I don't think you'd need to know any CSS.
- xtreak29 8y agoFor simpler ones with markdown I found marp very easy to work with : https://github.com/yhatt/marp https://github.com/yhatt/marp
- motyar 8y agoPlease check https://mark.show/ https://mark.show/ You can: Write markdown in editor or Upload a markdown file or Import direct from URL of markdown file. PS: I am creator of the service.
- kim0 8y agoPretty interesting, thanks! Is there a way to run this locally? Apart from that, I find what really stops me from using such tools is the lack of control over the layout of slides. Just saying use CSS isn't really enough for me! I found gitpitch to offer pretty good layout options, but the service is too commercial for my taste.
