Decker is Open Source Software and is happily acknowledging the inspiration it draws from multiple sources
## [decker](https://gitlab2.informatik.uni-wuerzburg.de/decker/decker)
- decker is based on `pandoc` and translates Markdown to HTML-slides
- It extends `pandoc` and `reveal.js` with additional filters and plugins.
- Decker is being developed by [Marc Latoschik & Team](http://hci.uni-wuerzburg.de/people/marc/) (Uni Würzburg), [Henrik Tramberend](https://tramberend.beuth-hochschule.de/) (Beuth Hochschule Berlin) and [Mario Botsch](https://graphics.cs.tu-dortmund.de/arbeitsgruppen/ag-geometrieverarbeitung/prof-dr-mario-botsch) (TU Dortmund).
- It is used at Uni Würzburg, Beuth Hochschule Berlin, TU Dortmund, Uni Bielefeld, Uni Osnabrück, Uni Bern, and EPFL.
## [Reveal.js](https://github.com/hakimel/reveal.js/)
reveal.js is an open source HTML presentation framework. It enables anyone with a web browser to create fully featured and beautiful presentations
## [Pandoc](https://pandoc.org/)
