About:
Patat is a terminal-based presentation tool that renders slides directly in the command line using Pandoc.

  • Terminal-native rendering (ANSI/Unicode)
  • Speaker notes and incremental reveals
  • Live reload mode for editing
  • Theme customization
Use Cases:
  • Technical demos in terminal-only environments
  • Live coding sessions and workshops
  • Quick documentation slideshows
Alternatives:
  • slides – Modern terminal presentation tool with more interactive features but larger footprint
  • reveal.js – Browser-based HTML presentations requiring graphical environment
