## What it is
remark is a simple, in-browser, markdown-driven slideshow tool written in JavaScript. Slides are authored in Markdown inside an HTML file, rendered by the remark library, and styled with regular CSS.

## Use cases
- create presentations from markdown files
- turn markdown into html slideshows
- present slides in the browser with presenter notes
- host slideshows on github pages or dropbox
- build touch-friendly slide decks for phones and tablets
- version-control my slide decks with git

## When to choose
- you know HTML/CSS and want plain-text, git-friendly slides
- you want offline, dependency-free presentations viewable in any browser
- you need presenter mode with speaker notes and a cloned view

## When to avoid
- you need PowerPoint-style graphics, animations, or export to .pptx
- you want a GUI slide editor rather than writing markdown
- you need a maintained project with frequent updates

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: markdown, templating, ui-components
- domain: web-development, frontend, documentation, developer-tools
- platform: browser, cross-platform
- tags: slideshow, presentation, markdown-slides, presenter-mode, syntax-highlighting, javascript
