Making Presentation Websites from Markdown

I’m using a tool recommended by my boss, reveal JS. This allows me to use Markdown, which I am a fan of from my times doing README driven development.

Now, we use pandoc to reveal to create the HTML page of our presentation.

The only downside to this approach is that an html file isn’t the most common thing to share. Thankfully revealjs has a nice “export to pdf” function, by appending /?print-pdf as the query string, we can render a PDF version in our browser, and then use the print feature to print to PDF and share or present to your group.
