presenterm is a terminal-based slideshow tool that renders presentations written in markdown. It supports images and animated gifs, customizable themes, syntax highlighting, code snippet execution, and exporting to PDF and HTML.

Use cases

  • give a presentation from the terminal using markdown slides
  • convert markdown slides to PDF
  • present code-heavy talks with syntax highlighting and live code execution
  • create themed terminal slideshows with images and gifs
  • render mermaid or LaTeX diagrams in terminal presentations

When to choose

  • you want to write slides in markdown and present them in a terminal
  • you present technical content with code snippets and want highlighting or live execution
  • you need a lightweight, scriptable alternative to GUI presentation tools
  • you want to export markdown presentations to PDF or HTML

When to avoid

  • you need rich GUI features like animations, embedded video, or collaborative editing
  • your audience requires PowerPoint/Keynote compatibility
  • you need image support on terminals that lack the graphics protocols presenterm uses
