Marpit Markdown

Marpit Markdown syntax focuses on compatibility with commonly Markdown documents. It means the result of rendering keeps looking nice even if you open the Marpit Markdown in a general Markdown editor.

How to write slides?

Marpit splits pages of the slide deck by horizontal ruler (e.g. ---). It’s very simple.

# Slide 1

foo

---

# Slide 2

An empty line may be required before the dash ruler by the spec of CommonMark. You can use the underline ruler ___, asterisk ruler ***, and space-included ruler - - - when you do not want to add empty lines.
