CLUSTER MARKDOWN-PRESENTATION-TERMINAL · 21 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2017-07-19

Markdown presentation generators

This cluster consists of tools that convert Markdown text into presentation slides, with a strong emphasis on terminal-based playback. Entries appeared sporadically from July 2017 through July 2026, roughly one per year with occasional gaps, so no overall trend is evident from the dated history. The most active members by stars are mdPresenter (1 star), followed by kova-bin and sldr (0 stars each), though all show minimal traction.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
