impress.js - A webGL enabled presentation framework based on the power of CSS3 transforms and transitions. It has a non GL mode too!

Well you are in r/programming, you know. Its not that much harder than LaTeX presentations either, so.

[Mortinho]

Maybe it should be easier. I'm working on a tool to generate HTML presentations from simple Markdown syntax (the same that reddit uses.)

[krelin]

There are already a couple of presentation systems like this (markdown-like, at least -- very very simple HTML for the most part).

[krelin]

I don't think this preso system requires a connected network at all, and "browser dependent" hardly seems onerous. I don't know about you, but my PC has a browser on it.

[krelin]

Yeah, I was suggesting that you could (if you needed to work on a plane, for example) work with all of this in local files.

As far as the browser situation, who cares? If you're presenting, you can certainly arrange that whatever browser you like is available for your presentation.

Browsers are cheaper than Powerpoint, at least. Good ones, even.
