In-browser Slide Deck Editor?

[karlhorky]

Description

Today I saw the amazing Slidev feature by @kermanx recently for being able to drag and drop elements and write changes to MDX:

🤏 In Slidev 0.49 (currently in beta), we will get draggable elements just like what you have in Keynote/PowerPoint!

🎩 What makes it even better is that the positions will be written back to your markdown file magically!

• PR: feat: draggable element slidevjs/slidev#1402

In-browser slide deck editing capabilities would make authoring in Spectacle competitive with the user experience of PowerPoint or Keynote

This could include:

1. Draggable / resizeable / rotatable elements
2. Writing the changes back to the Markdown / MDX file
3. Editable text?

Proposal

• Adding an "editing mode" in slide deck viewer
• Creating components for dragging, resizing and rotating elements
• Writing back to the .md or .mdx file on disk
  • Probably more complex to allow for editing of elements within React components
• Maybe this can be implemented in a similar way to Slidev's PR?

Alternatives Considered

1. Just use Slidev - problem: Slidev doesn't support MDX / React (reference 2)
