Beamer-reveal
Synopsis
Beamer is a very powerful and convenient document class to create presentations and slides. However, integrating multimedia in it, is still a bit of a faff. The (limited) functionality heavily relies on the availability of acroread. This package allows you to convert your beamer presentation to the reveal.js framework, rendering your presentation as an HTML website in your browser. This allows for easy incorporation of videos, audio fragments, iframe chunks, images and LaTeX animations.
Package
The package is available on CTAN.
Background
Why use Beamer-reveal? Why not work directly work in the reveal.js framework? I see two reasons: - It avoids a new learning curve, allowing you to continue to build on your LATEX and beamer expertise. - It avoids that you have to convert your thousands of slides into a new format.
