Show HN: SlideBySide – Present slides without sharing your screen

https://slidebyside.com/
11•denismenace•1h ago
Why is it useful? - Present slides without sharing the screen and have every one be on the same page. - Present together with other cohosts and all control the current page. - Other features such as presentation collab features.

Why should I not just vibe code my own solution? - Its a hassle to maintain a version online.

I am not sure there are many instances where I would be comfortable uploading my slides to a random website?

I know. Kinda hard to develop trust, but I am considering making all slides E2E encrypted or at least have the option for it.

I wanted to first know if people would like something like this.

In a previous position, we used Adobe Connect a lot for online meetings, and the normal way of sharing presentations was to upload them to the room and control the presentation from there.

Webex has this as well, but I find that most people don't bother and just share their screen.

What's the use case? Lots of people use powerpoint and can't escape the microsoft ecosystem anyway.

This looks clever. I've seen PPT to web tools before (https://sparkslides.com/publish/, https://slidehtml5.com/), but I think the slide synchronization idea is new. I can't evaluate more than that as I don't use these.

In the past I have liked marp (https://marp.app/) for technical slides as you write in markdown, can use version control, etc. Powerpoint always felt odd as a developer.

To share public slides I've published to GitHub pages (https://github.com/robalexdev/marp-to-pages). I've seen professors use it for all their slides. But that doesn't synchronize slides, last I checked.
