I love this! We once had this exact use case when there was a weasel ravaging in the kitchen - I downloaded some software and wired it up, but it was quite involved and the weasel sadly never showed up. I'll definitely use this the nex

reveal.js is mostly aimed at creating slides using HTML, it has markdown support for writing the content, but this project seems to aim to create the entire presentation from markdown. I'd compare it to deckset - https://www

You are right, I was focused on the sustainability to feed all the people with that method. From the comments here it seems I was a bit too pessimistic and that there are some working examples, pretty exciting! Probably have to get back to

Just because you mentioned smart TVs - I had the same opinion, but was then blown away by my new LG OLED TV. It's so freaking fast with Netflix / Prime / YouTube and the UX is really well made (others are probably similar by

That story feels like scrolljacking because there is a mismatch from the scrolling and the background animation, it's a pretty free tool, so the designer decided to have easings like that. But you're still scrolling normally, the
