Shameless self plug: http://letslide.com

It uses landslide as the backend. I used landslide a few times and thought it was great, but could not have non-techies adopt it since it requires some knowledge of Python, pip, etc. Figured I would put it on the web.

I created Landslide (github.com/adamzap/landslide).

I found letslide.com a few weeks ago and have been wanting to contact and thank the creator. You did a great job with it.

We'll be talking more!

If I may digress for a moment: these types of interactions are why I love Hacker News so much. It's such a fantastic network of people that make things.

Thanks for the kind words. Also thank you for the work you did on Landslide. I love the idea of just typing in content and not really worrying about the final formatting.

I will shoot you an email to the address in your profile.

Among the html slidshows, impress.js impressed me the most.

There's also a jQuery port with many improvements, called jmpress.js[1]. And you should also have a look at my App for creating jmpress-like presentations, Imprys[2]

Aww damn, I was super excited at the `Your slideshow will be built and refreshed automagically` bit, but (unless something is wrong with my setup) I assume it doesn't refresh the page in your browser when it's rebuilt?

I've been passively looking for a good way to do this for years now. Couldn't the server send some kind of "hey browser, refresh this page" message? I've seen super platform specific hacks that tell the browser to refresh the currently open page, but this is clumsy and difficult to setup. Every other technique relied on some kind of a continuous refreshing timer which gets in the way and always seems to refresh just before you saved your changes.

I've found Guard::LiveReload (https://github.com/guard/guard-livereload) to work exceptionally well. It's Ruby, but should work alongside whatever development framework you're using.
