CLI tool for making HTML presentations with Remark.js using Markdown. Use bs init to create a new presentation along with a template directory in the current directory. The template directory is needed for backslide to transform your Markdown files into HTML presentations. You can create as many markdown presentations as you want in the directory, they will all be based on the same template. Use bs serve to start a development server with live reload. A page will automatically open in your web browser showing all your presentations. Select one to see the preview, you can then edit your .md file and see the changes immediately as you save the file. Any style change will also be applied live. Slides are written in Markdown, along with some useful Remark.js specific additions. See the Remark.js wiki for the specific syntax and helpers.
