## What it is
Eisvogel is a clean pandoc LaTeX template for converting markdown documents to PDF or LaTeX, including a beamer variant for slides. It is designed for lecture notes and exercises with a focus on computer science.

## Use cases
- convert markdown files to pdf
- generate pdf lecture notes from markdown
- create beamer slides from markdown
- produce nicely styled pdf reports with pandoc
- render markdown documentation as latex
- set up a pandoc docker workflow for pdf generation

## When to choose
- you use pandoc and want a polished, ready-made LaTeX template
- you write lecture notes, exercises, or reports in markdown and need PDF output
- you want beamer slides generated from markdown
- you prefer a Docker-based pandoc+LaTeX toolchain

## When to avoid
- you need a WYSIWYG markdown-to-PDF tool without LaTeX
- you want a general-purpose document converter rather than a pandoc template
- your toolchain does not include pandoc or a LaTeX distribution
