Someday, my friends, presentations made and saved in Markdown will be king, and we can forget about opening slow programs to edit them.

Yes, somehow the world will be a better place when everything is a plaintext document. At least that's how I imagine it.

Incidentally, there was a cool python program for presenting pdfs I used years ago. I wonder if it or similar are still in vogue somewhere.

I do all my presentations in markdown. Maintain them in git.

Share the web page to share the presentation.

PowerPoint sucks. So slow to make a presentation. So slow to change for a different audience.
