### What we like

Presentations are created in Markdown so have a plain text source. Supports images and gifs. Themable. Includes syntax highlighting. Code snippets can be executed on demand. You also present from your terminal, but can export to PDF.

### Tradeoffs

You lose flexibility from WYSIWYG slide editors, but we could all do with simpler presentations.
