## Notes

Slidev is a web-based slides maker and presenter. A deck is written as Markdown in a slides.md file, and Vue 3 powers the Markdown, so Vue components can be embedded in slides. Vite provides the instant reloading while editing.

A project is created with the create-slidev scaffold, and editing and presenting run Slidev as a web server. After the presentation, the [hosting guide](https://sli.dev/guide/hosting) describes building the deck into a static single-page application that any static server can serve.
