Fancy presentation tools require bulky software or ninja coding and design
skills.

Bedecked does not.

<span class="fragment">But if you have those skills, that's cool too.</span>


Presentations are written as text files, e.g. markdown:

```
# I'm a slide title!

I'm some slide text!
```


Bedecked inserts slide breaks when there are two or more empty lines in a row:

```
 # I'm a slide!

 
 ## I'm another slide!
 
 
 
 ## I'm a third!

 With some text.
```


We're using the awesome reveal.js presentation framework. So you can have sweet
features like basement slides...

  ... and [lots of other neat stuff](https://github.com/hakimel/reveal.js) too.

  By the way you make basement slides in bedecked by indenting:

  ```
   ## I'm a top level side
   
   
     ## I'm a basement slide
   
   
     ## Yet another basement slide
   
   
   ## Back to the top level
  ```

## Markdown + HTML
Bedecked presentations are just text files. If you know markdown you can make
awesome presentations.

(If you don't [it's super easy](https://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/basics))

## Why text files?

- Focus on your *content* while writing, not style.
- Have a text editor? You're ready to start writing.
- Have a browser? You can view a presentation.


Exporting a single HTML file means presentations are easy to share with Dropbox
or S3.

Mobile users can enjoy your presentations too.

  By the way you don't have to use markdown. Jade and vanilla HTML are fine too.
