Overview

reveal.js is an open-source HTML presentation framework that empowers users to create dynamic and engaging slide decks using standard web technologies. Instead of relying on proprietary software, presentations are built with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, making them highly customizable, easily shareable, and accessible across various platforms.

The framework offers a rich set of features including nested slides for organizing content, robust code syntax highlighting for technical talks, and 'Auto-Animate' for seamless transitions between slides. It's designed to be touch-optimized, ensuring presentations look great and are navigable on mobile devices. For those who prefer a visual editor, the commercial platform Slides.com is built on reveal.js, offering a user-friendly interface to create and manage presentations without coding.
