A few questions first

• Who here would consider themselves a developer ?
• Experience with code editors / IDEs ?
• More comfortable with editor than with other software ?
• Does text just feel faster/more efficient at this point?

---

  Markdown

(It's everywhere - you've most likely dealt with it at least once)

# Main title
## Heading 2 - You can make:

- *italic text*
- **bold text**
- ~~strikethrough~~
- lists
- [links](http://example.com)
- ![images](image_name_here)
- > Quotes

Why not write presentations as text ?

Introducing:  (Yuki Hattori)

• Markdown presentation ecosystem
• Comes as a command line tool or a VSCode editor extension
• Technically Just A Web Page™️ \implies can write HTML/CSS if you want to customize
• MarpX (Paolo Cunha) offers high quality ready-to-use themes
• If you know Markdown/HTML/CSS: No need to learn (yet another) tool!

---

Collaborating with others / keeping track of versions ?

"Well surely the editor can't do that ", I hear you say

• All the presentations are text-based versions of a file tree
• We need a tool to maintain versions of a text-based file tree...
• Ever heard of git?
• We already have a tool to collaborate on versions of text-based projects!

---

How do we make sure data is safe from big companies?

• there are online platforms like GitHub for this (but: this defeats the whole purpose)
• it's 2026, and servers are pretty cheap
• you can set up your own infra in an afternoon

---

One step further: hosting services on your own infrastructure

• I won't tell you how to set it up (plenty of guides online)
• Here are some tools I'm using for my personal setup:

Requirement	Possible tool
Server	Any VPS
Simple software deployment	Docker
HTTPS support	Caddy
Git collaboration	Gitea
Presentation hosting	Git-Pages
Automated deployment	Gitea Actions

---

...isn't this really expensive, though?

• Not really!
• Domain name: ~10 EUR/year
• 24/7 VPS (200GB Storage, 6 vCPUs, 12GB RAM): 6.72 EUR/month
  • Also hosting other services on it and not even at capacity
  • I use Contabo, but Hetzner/OVH/Hostinger also work
• it's all yours, no need to worry about your data being accessed by third parties!
• Privacy does have a price, but so does exposing your personal data
  • Which one are you willing to pay?
