Eggplant

Deck.js + Markdown = Eggplant

Eggplant is a presentation software, inspired by showoff. The basic idea is the same, you write your slides in Markdown, Eggplant do the rest for you.

It can:

  • show simple slides writem with Markdown
  • show syntax highlighted code
  • execute Javascript or Coffeescript live and display results
  • bullets with incremental advancing
  • call up a menu of sections/slides at any time to jump around
  • do simple transitions (instant, fade, slide in)
  • do everything else Deck.js do

It might will can:

  • re-enact command line interactions
  • show a pre-show slideshow while you wait to start
  • perform simple animations of images moving between keyframes

  • let audience members download slides, code samples or other supplementary material

  • simple remote control from another browser (like an iphone)

  • show a timer - elapsed / remaining

  • show synchronized, hidden notes

  • let you write on the slide with your mouse, madden-style via canvas
