Marp

Marp, Markdown Presentation Ecosystem, provides the great experience to create beautiful slide deck. You only have to focus writing your story in Markdown document.

Based on CommonMark

CommonMark is the consistent spec of Markdown.

The only important difference is a ruler --- for splitting pages.

Marp CLI

https://github.com/marp-team/marp-cli

It can convert Marp / Marpit Markdown files into static HTML / CSS, PDF, PowerPoint document, and image(s) easily.

CLI is the "swiss army knife" for Marp ecosystem. Convert your Markdown into various formats, watch changes, launch server for on-demand conversion, and customize engine.

Marp for VS code

Enhance VS Code's Markdown preview pane to support writing your beautiful presentation. You can see the slide deck output as soon as editing Markdown.

Marp preview for Markdown document will be enabled when marp: true is written in front-matter.

It also can toggle by opening the quick picker from toolbar icon and selecting "Toggle Marp preview for current Markdown". (markdown.marp.toggleMarpPreview).
