Jupyter may not be the most straightforward way to create presentation slides and handouts, but it affords more control than simpler options.

There are many options when it comes to creating slides for a presentation. There are straightforward ways, and generating slides directly from Jupyter is not one of them. But I was never one to do things the easy way. I also have high expectations that no other slide-generation software quite meets.

Why transition from slides to Jupyter?

I want four features in my presentation software:

1. An environment where I can run the source code to check for errors
2. A way to include speaker notes but hide them during the presentation
3. To give attendees a useful handout for reading
4. To give attendees a useful handout for exploratory learning
