FAQPage Schema
How do I convert Markdown slides into terminal presentations?

Terminal presentations convert Markdown files into interactive slide decks displayed in the terminal. Use the core command to render your Markdown file as slides with rich formatting, themes, and navigation controls directly in your terminal environment.

Can I export terminal presentations to PDF or HTML?

Yes, terminal-based presentations support export to both PDF and HTML formats. After authoring your Markdown slides, use the export options to generate standalone documents suitable for sharing or printing.

Does terminal presentation support executable code blocks and diagrams?

Terminal presentations render executable code blocks, Mermaid diagrams, D2 diagrams, and LaTeX/Typst formulas directly within slides. Code executes during presentation, and diagrams render with full formatting support.

What Markdown features work in terminal slide presentations?

Terminal presentations support standard Markdown syntax for slide content, plus extended features: themes, speaker notes, diagram rendering, formula typesetting, and code execution blocks. Slides separate automatically using Markdown delimiters.

Do I need to install dependencies to run terminal presentations?

Terminal presentations run with no external dependencies. The Skill handles all rendering and execution internally, requiring only a Markdown file and terminal access to create and deliver presentations.

Can I apply custom themes to terminal presentations?

Terminal presentations include built-in themes and support custom theme application. Themes control terminal rendering appearance, colors, and layout styling across all slides in your presentation.
