Deckset 2 - Great-looking slides from simple Markdown files in no time

This is my go to app to create my classes, I was looking for this for quite sometime. I tried reveal dabbled with beamer but this is much simpler for me and looks better out of the box.

You work on simple .md text files, at first this might seem backwards but the time you save by not having to go around poking in menus is amazing.

No clutter, simple, good looking

Lack of options to position images/graphics

It's great for presentation where the knowledge, content you want to share is important mostly. Deckset makes it easy to focus WHAT you want to share and don't distract by details of making something pixel-perfect.

I think it's very good for developers.

PS version 2 gives a possibility to customise a templates a bit which is very useful to create presentation with a company brand colors/fonts

Making a presentation quickly

not as powerful as keynote/powerpoint (but it doesn't mean to be)

I saw a presentation did with Deckset few months ago and found it was very clear with a nice design. When I understood that the design is doing automatically 

by the software and the user has just to edit a markdown file, I was seduced. So I tried it recently and I was surprised by this brilliant software. To create a pretty presentation, we are just to edit a markdown file! That’s crazy but they have more in this version 2. We can now customize our presentation in few clicks … and share the style with other users. The wow effect is real.

Easy to use.

Faster to create.

Simple to learn.

Elegant result to show.

You must to know how markdown works ?

Already I can tell I'll be using this for most of my presentations going forward. I greatly appreciate how this application encourages you to focus on the flow of the presentation by enabling you to never take your hands off the keyboard. The appeal is that you can "write presentations." As a high school teacher it's allowed me to create a greater number of high-quality presentations. It's not the default option, going to Keynote or Pear Deck if I need something that those applications have (mostly Magic Move and interactive questions). Great stuff. Hoping for an iOS app next – it would be amazing to work on a .MD file on my iPhone or iPad and hop over to Deckset to see how it looks! I imagine this could work via Dropbox sync.

Focused, streamlined, integrated, beautiful

Can occasionally be a bit finicky wrestling with formatting

Great job, v2 with massive improvements, good idea to NOT include an editor (there are hundreds!), some issues with Ulysses as an editor, tend ot think is my old 2.7.2 version

Fast, easy, focus-on-content presentation design, very easy to update, improve, customize deliveries as only a markdown file needs editing

having to "migrate" many ideas/ppts/keynotes to deckset :D

This app is now my go to presentation tool. I've always had trouble making my presentations look good. The options that are available in Deckset make that part really easy.

Super simple, and lots of options to choose from! and I can use my favourite editor to make the slides!!

Zero

The simplicity of creating a slideshow with Markdown makes creating documentation or slideware really easy

Love the new tables feature

I need more co-workers to adopt it

I'm a happy user of the paid version of Deckset. After using Keynote for more time than I can remember, I've opted for the simplicity of using markdown and having bold text rather than fine control over placement of graphical elements that Keynote will provide.

My presentations for the last 12 months have all been done either with Deckset (for the screen) or with Google Slides (for collaboration) with super simple templates. If you look at my Slideshare you can tell that wasn't always the case ;-)) https://www.slideshare.net/matte...

Simple, fast, to the point

A bit of a learning curve to place images

It really helps me on presentations

Markdown support, cool themes

Price

fantastic and minimalistic. great for putting together slides at the last moment ;-)

simple to use, create elegant presentations, easy export function
