Is there any sort of free/open source system for doing follow-along slide presentations?
EDIT: to be clear, the audience devices synchronising with the presenter's slides is a must-have feature. I am fully capable of generating HTML/JS slide presentations in pandoc.
I'm thinking of the sort that mentimeter or wayground or peardeck do: everyone gets a URL or a QR code at the start and they load the presentation on their devices. From then on, each slide appears on each participant's device as well as the presenter's, and perhaps there are options for audience input.
