Ask HN: Programming Language for Building Slide Decks

I build an app for this some time ago: https://hyperdeck.io

It uses markdown with extensions. There’re also a lot of alternative markdown based slide generators on GitHub. Most use JavaScript though and I wanted something native

https://revealjs.com/ is a mature, popular option and supports writing slides in Markdown, though ultimately you are working with HTML.

Beamer (https://www.overleaf.com/learn/latex/Beamer) works well if you are comfortable with LaTeX.

Oh nice. It's been a while since I've used LaTeX, but ChatGPT is great with it :)
