Presenteer.js: Flexible HTML5 presentation tool

[mmahemoff]

The take I'd really like to see on HTML5 presentations is making them easy to author. If not by end-users, at least making it so there's no layout micromanagement involved.

I've made an open source experimental authoring tool for such presentations here http://adityab.github.com/Awwation

It uses SVG, and Javascript for animations.

Try out my iPad app, Imprys[1]. The iPad screen really lends itself to that kind of arrangement, because it's just so intuitive to zoom and pan around.

This is great! How does it compare with impress.js or jmpress (the jQuery version of impress)? I'd like to use this in my authoring tool, if CSS3 animations work with SVG.

I'm always unsure about using code released under Creative Commons. What are requirements wrt. attribution? Does ‘Share Alike’ mean that the source code of a product using the library must be released under CC BY-SA as well?

Otherwise, Presenteer looks nice. Text becomes a bit blurry during animation (Chrome 18.0), but apart from that—no problems, and API seems clean.

Yet another very nice HTML5 presentation framework with no GUI for actually making nice presentations. Until someone spends some time putting some actual user tools around one of these things, HTML5 presentation tools will remain a geek sandbox.

You can try my iPad app Imprys (http://imprys.com/), which does just that. It's in an early stage, and currently uses impress.js, but if there's interest, I can produce a version with presenteer as well.

Here you go: http://awwation.com Unfinished, but it works. Code's on github.

It reminds me a lot of impress.js[1], however, impress.js's execution is a lot smoother.

There's also jmpress.js[1], which is the jQuery port of impress.js and improves on several aspects.

Not sure why, but in latest Chrome (19.0) on OSX I get a lot of flickering during the transitions (like a full browser black flash).

Excellent. I'll be using this very soon!

Elegant and impressive. Thank you.
