Goveal
Goveal is very small an very simple tool that reads Markdown from a given file, renders it into a HTML template and serves it as local HTTP server. Right now Goveal uses Reveal.js 3.8.0 to create presentations and therefore also includes all features of Reveal.js 3.8.0.
Usage
The easiest way to use goveal is to download a release, and run it from your $PATH.
goveal serve ./slides.md

Config
Goveal supports multiple configuration mechanisms.
It tries to load a configuration file from $HOME or from . i.e. $HOME/goveal.yaml or $HOME/goveal.yml or ./goveal.yaml and so on.
Most options that can be set via commandline flags can also be set via configuration file (actually all but the --config switch does not make sense in the configuration file, does it? 😉).
It is more a convenience feature to be able to set a theme and so on and so forth for the presentation without having to pass it every time as parameter.
Furthermore goveal supports configuration hot reloading i.e. you can play around with different themes and the rendered theme will be changed whenever you hit the save button!
