PAST: Delivering Code-Heavy Presentations with Markdown

WATCH HERE

Presenter: Ramses van Zon, SciNet

There is no shortage of tools available for producing presentations in various formats, each with its own strengths and limitations. However, technical presentations containing substantial amounts of code present additional challenges and demand specific features. Drawing from extensive experience in delivering technical presentations, this session will share key lessons learned in creating polished, clear, and maintainable slide decks. Markdown, a simple but versatile text-based format, will be demonstrated to be an effective input format to achieve these goals. This presentation will also provide a curated overview of markdown-based tools that can turn markdown input files into PDF or HTML presentations.
