Markdown presentations

Turn a Markdown outline into a simple slide deck

Markdown is a fast way to draft a presentation because the source stays focused on titles, ideas, lists, quotes, and code. This presentation maker treats a horizontal rule as a slide break, renders each section, and provides navigation, fullscreen presenting, and print-to-PDF output.

Separate slides with ---

Each horizontal-rule line starts a new slide unless it appears inside a fenced code block, so code samples containing dashes do not split the deck unexpectedly.

Use familiar Markdown

Headings, paragraphs, lists, links, quotes, images, and fenced code render without requiring a proprietary presentation format.

Present or print

Move through slides with buttons or arrow keys, enter fullscreen for delivery, or open the print dialog to save one slide per PDF page.

How to make slides from Markdown

  1. Write one central idea per slide and place a --- line between slide sections.
  2. Use the deck preview and counter to check pacing, overflow, and the order of ideas.
  3. Select Present for fullscreen or Print / PDF to create a shareable copy.

Markdown slide questions

Can I save the presentation as PDF?

Yes. Use the Print / PDF action and choose your browser’s PDF destination. The print stylesheet places each slide on its own page.

Can I use code blocks?

Yes. Fenced code renders on the slide, and horizontal rules inside an open fence are not interpreted as slide separators.
