deal-next

The successor to deal.

Goal

The previous version was written in vanilla JS and consisted of a web server as well as a few web pages. This version is (currently) purely client-based, using Svelte for better performance and simplicity, avoiding the boilerplate common with other JS frameworks.

The other main distinguishing factor is the use of pure markdown instead of pug as the main slide creation language to mimic a plaintext appearance instead of code.
