hovercraft

Makes impress.js presentations from reStructuredText

Project description

The merge of convenience and cool!

Hovercraft! is a tool to make impress.js presentations from reStructuredText. For a quick explanation, see the demo.

Write your presentations in a text markup language. No slow, limiting GUI, no annoying HTML!
Pan, rotate and zoom in 3D, with automatic repositioning of slides!
A presenter console with notes and slide previews!
The slide show generated is in HTML, so you only need a web browser to show it.
Easy sharing, as it can be put up on a website for anyone to see!

Full documentation is available at readthedocs.org, and also in the documentation subdirectory.
