MOTIVATION

3.
Pros
 It’s quicker to add a few HTML tags than use a WYSIWYG
interface.
 You can update a presentation using a basic text editor on any
device.
 Files can be hosted on the web; you need never lose a PPT again.
 You can easily distribute a presentation without viewing software.
 It’s not PowerPoint and your audience will be amazed by your
technical prowess.

4.
Cons
 You require web coding skills.
 Positioning, effects and transitions are more limited.
 Few systems offer slide notes (it’s a little awkward to show them
separately).
 It’s more difficult to print handouts.
