p_slides

i love how topics like these not only bring out a review of the tool in question, but also suggest other related tools for comparison. for convenience, here is a list of all alternatives mentioned (in no particular order): (i added a quick but incomplete review of key aspects of each tool. almost all are using markdown and support pdf export) https://arnehilmann.github.io/markdeck/ (reveal.js docker) https://pandoc.org/MANUAL.html#producing-slide-shows-with-pa...

Shameless plug: Being a lecturer, I wrote something similar years ago: https://github.com/munen/p_slides p_slides doesn’t have any dependency that doesn’t run in the browser and its files can be checked into SCM which makes collaboration easy.

Shameless plug: I'm a lecturer and have scratched this itch some time ago with a pet project that a couple lecturers are using now: https://github.com/munen/p_slides/ It doesn't ship it's own editor, because everyone already has a favorite(for me that's formerly vim, now Emacs). It's only static files, so it doesn't need a server or pre-compilation. It's extensible, has syntax highlighting and produces PDFs for the students. Also, it's only a mash up of great existing libraries, so it needs no maintainance and further development. One of the few pieces of software that I wrote which are feature complete^^ A couple friends(also lecturers) and I have been using it for about five years now.

Good point, another similar tool p_slides[1] has just that. 1. https://github.com/munen/p_slides

p_slides[1] does just that. 1. https://github.com/munen/p_slides

what you need is p_slides[1] - it supports export to pdf (via printing to pdf) as well as syntax highlighting 1. https://github.com/munen/p_slides
