It's just a JQuery-based version of S5, called S6. My fork of it is here: The background image is just a simple, very small, SVG gradient. I author in markdown, run the file through pandoc to convert to XHTML (though any markdown processor will do), and then pipe it to an XSLT that converts it into my (idiosyncratic) S6 XHTML. > And let us know what > exactly it is that you're missing in simple-slides. Am looking to be able to (easily) do something vaguely like ... \SlideTitle{Some Slide}[style=big-title] .. where 'big-title' gets me the title large and centered vertically on the page. More generally, it's just the idea to be able to adept the rendering on a per-page basis with a simple parameter (rather than me having to figure out how to write lower-level code). It is therefore conceptually analogous to the master slide feature you see in apps like Keynote or PowerPoint.
