## What it is
reveal-md is a Node.js CLI tool that turns Markdown files into beautiful reveal.js presentations, serving them locally with live reload and theming support. It can also export slides to PDF or generate a static website, and runs via Docker without a local Node.js install.

## Use cases
- turn a markdown file into a slide deck
- present slides from markdown in the browser
- export markdown presentation to pdf
- build a static website from markdown slides
- live-reload slides while editing markdown
- serve reveal.js presentations in docker

## When to choose
- you want to write presentations in plain Markdown with minimal setup
- you need PDF export or static site output from slides
- you want reveal.js features like themes, speaker notes, and syntax highlighting without hand-writing HTML

## When to avoid
- you need a tool in active development with new features (it is in maintenance mode)
- you need advanced interactive or code-driven slides (consider Slidev)
- you need a graphical slide editor rather than Markdown-based authoring

## Facets
- artifact type: cli-tool
- maturity: maintenance
- function: cli, markdown, static-site-generator, http-server, pdf
- domain: developer-tools, documentation, web-development
- platform: cli, cross-platform
