Why convert slides to Markdown?

Decks are hard for LLMs and search tools to read. As Markdown, a 40-slide deck becomes a compact outline you can summarize, search, or turn into documentation.

Speaker notes

Notes are kept under each slide as a quote block, because they often hold the explanations that the slides only hint at.

Example

A two-slide deck with titles, a nested bullet and speaker notes on the first slide.
