FAQPage Schema
How do I create presentation slides with Markdown?

Markdown-based slides separate content sections with '---' delimiters and support YAML frontmatter for configuration. Slidev renders these .slides.md or slides.md files directly into interactive presentations, letting you write slides as plain text without GUI tools.

Can I use Vue components inside my presentation slides?

Yes, Slidev integrates Vue components directly into slides. Embed custom Vue components and code blocks within Markdown sections to add interactivity, charts, and dynamic content alongside standard slide text and formatting.

How do I start viewing and editing slides locally?

Run 'pnpm run slides [filename]' to launch a local dev server at http://localhost:3030. This starts the Slidev runtime environment where you can preview changes instantly as you edit your Markdown slide files.

What file formats does Slidev use for presentations?

Slidev uses Markdown files (*.slides.md or slides.md) with YAML frontmatter configuration. Each file becomes a complete presentation deck with slides separated by '---' and support for presenter notes and transitions.

Can I add presenter notes and slide transitions in Slidev?

Slidev supports presenter notes and transitions within Markdown slides. Define these features in your slide sections using Slidev's Markdown syntax to enhance engagement and speaker experience during presentations.
