While speaking at conferences around the globe, teaching at the university, and attending countless meetings both live and virtually, I identified a common challenge: limited audience engagement. Inspired by live streaming’s interactivity, I created Slidr.app — an innovative framework making presentations engaging and fun. Built with React, QR code integrations, broadcast communications, and a heavy dose of confetti and emojis, Slidr.app stands as a testament to modern open-source web technologies. It facilitates real-time audience interaction, be it in-person or remote. Join me to uncover the building of Slidr.app and delve into its tech stack.
