    Have been using iA-Presenter for a couple of years. Same idea, but commercial: https://ia.net/presenter. Great for quick-dirty presentations.

    But if you need to toss in a diagram, or micro-tweak layout, it’s back to Powerpoint.

    Looks great, but I don’t like having to install dependencies manually.

    Call me lazy, but I would prefer a real package for my package manager that resolves and installs all dependencies for me.

    For development, sure I’ll use npm, maven, or whatever to get what I need.

    But when I install anything to increase my productivity, I feel the “requires this and that” off putting. I want to become more efficient, not have more work to do and more stuff to keep maintained.

    The tool looks really nice though! I love simple file formats that allow for keeping stuff in Git 😄

        For development i understand using package.json or whatever.

        But when providing the finished solution I think it should be provided as a deb/rpm/flatpak.

        I don’t want to manage sources and keep the installation in a cloned git repo. That is what my OS package manager is for. For example, Spotify would never distribute their client as a package.json. It is just not convenient.

        Of course I love that the source is available, but I prefer the conveniance of a deb/rpm when I am just consuming software.

        I seldom do work with node/npm. It is not my domain and I won’t learn it for the purpose of using this software.
