Create Presentations with Markor & Markdown
Markor makes creating presentation slides with plaintext faster & easier than ever.
Presentations can be exported & shared as PDF & HTML. This means you can create & prepare for presentations fast with Markor, open it on a PC or share it via E-Mail & WhatsApp.
The example presentation (as seen in the video) is bundled with Markor. Press the + button at the file browser to create a new file, select the presentation-beamer.md template and you get the whole Abed Nadir presentation.
It’s the easiest way to start your presentation as most common slide styles are included. (Like custom slide background color & image, centered image, bullet points, title only slides, ..)
Excerpt of the presentation, includes information about the syntax:

class: beamer

Audio Recording / Voice Notes
Add voice notes to your documents (all formats)! You can find the audio recording option in the attachment menu.
Highest priority: Privacy!
Audio recording is always started and stopped manually by the user!
Audio recording requires the audio recording permission, it must be granted before recording can start.
- Play the recording prior to saving with the left button
- Starts and stop audio recording with the right button. If you did a spelling error and want to re-record just press the record button again. Only the last recording will be added to the document
- Markor will suggest a time based filename for saving but you can choose any filename (
*.wav) you want - Markor inserts the audio recording with HTML syntax. You can listen to it at Markor’s View Mode
Create Markdown tables fast
There is now a easy way to add tables to your Markdown documents!
Use the new editor table button to add tables!
- Long press the table button to start a table (=create table header)
- Short press the table button to add a new row to the table
- You can choose the amount of columns as you wish. Max 5 recommended.
- The last used column count is highlighted
Notice: Markdown tables must always have a header (---|---|---). If you don’t need the header text, remove the line above the header ( | | ).
