Show HN: Lectureapp.io – Online Markdown-to-anything* editor Here's my weekend project that I think you'll find interesting. Markdown was (and still is) my secret weapon to keep myself productive and sane throughout my teaching career, and that's because I created and maintained number of internal tools to convert such text documents to presentation decks, blog articles, and even pop quizzes.

I welcome any feature suggestions as this will be my main driver for future teaching appointments. https://lectureapp.io/ May 1, 2023 at 12:36PM

The newsletter was meant to help unite ...
