MkSlides – Markdown to slides with a similar workflow to MkDocs

As a teacher, we keep our slides as markdown files in git repos and want to build these automatically so they can be viewed online (or offline if needed). To achieve this, I have created MkSlides.

Install: `pip install mkslides` Building slides: `mkslides build` Live preview during editing: `mkslides serve` Comparison with other tools like marp, slidev, ...: - This tool is a single command and easy to integrate in CI/CD pipelines. - It only needs Python. - The workflow…

Designed for educators and teams who store slides in git repositories, it builds presentations automatically for online or offline viewing. Installation requires only Python via pip.

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself.
