Yes, but markdeck uses decktape and chrome headless...
so your PDF is in fact a near pixel-perfect version of your HTML slides.
Yep! I just wasn't willing to run "curl ... | bash" on a corporate computer to install markdeck. I made a note to circle back to it, I still want to try it, the slides look slicker than those generated by pandoc with beamer which is what I use now to generate PDF presentations. my first choice was GitPitch but rendering PDFs doesn't work without using their web service and this content has got to stay on the private network.
So how would you like to install such a tool on a corporate device?
Is docker an option In your case?
Is downloading and reviewing the scaffold script sufficient (before actually starting it)?
yeah, that would be fine -- what stopped me actually (now that I'm circling back to it) was the requirement for docker-compose which my sandbox VM didn't have. and still doesn't (some dependency is broken). sigh. that's all the time I have for it now.
I actually narrowed it down a bit further and reached out to someone internally that can help me work through this. thanks!
I tried this at home on Ubuntu 16 LTS and discovered my Docker is too old.
ERROR: Version in "./docker-compose.yaml" is unsupported. ... specify a version of "2" (or "2.0") ...
markdeck uses version 3.2
I guess it's time to finally upgrade to Ubuntu 18 LTS. I just needed a reason. =)
