On the other hand https://github.com/yhatt/marp-cli-example:

  • Just do npm i and edit PITCHME.md.

  • node_modules: only 130MB

    • mathjax-full: 43MB
    • chromium-bidi: 14MB
    • puppeteer-core: 12MB
    • . . . . .

  • VSCode preview plugin!

  • Build to PDF is much faster, no errors with proxy (for proxy just install proxychains, configure it and prefix command with it: proxychains npm run pdf)

  "scripts": {
    "pdf": "marp --no-stdin PITCHME.md -o public/presentation.pdf",

  • If you want to fit long text just write scope CSS rule: <style scoped>section { font-size: 20px; }</style> inside the markdown slide: marp-team/marp-core#128 (comment)

  • Disable slides transition effects with transition: false in marp.config.mjs.
