## What it is
xaringan is an R package for creating HTML slide presentations with remark.js through R Markdown. It provides the moon_reader output format, RStudio templates, and live preview so slides can be written in Markdown and knitted to self-contained presentations.

## Use cases
- create html slides from markdown
- make r markdown presentations
- build a slideshow with remark.js
- present code and math in slides
- live preview slides while editing in rstudio
- convert rmd to presentation slides

## When to choose
- you work in R/R Markdown and want reproducible slides
- you need LaTeX math, code highlighting, and HTML output in a presentation
- you want lightweight browser-based slides without PowerPoint

## When to avoid
- you need Pandoc markdown extensions or PowerPoint/PDF export as the primary format
- you want a GUI slide editor rather than writing markdown
- your project is not R-based and you prefer tools like reveal.js directly

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: stable
- function: static-site-generator, markdown, templating
- domain: web-development, documentation, developer-tools
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: r-package, rmarkdown, remarkjs, slides, presentation, html-slides, web-server
