markdown element

Markdown content, rendered to HTML at build time.

Fields

Field	Type	Default	Description
markdown	string	required	Markdown content, rendered to HTML at build time. Authored inline or via markdown_file: "path/to/content.md" (the file form reads the file at parse time).
markdown_file	path (optional)	null	Path to a file whose text becomes markdown, relative to the slide source file (e.g. "content.md"). Read and inlined at parse time. Author exactly one of markdown / markdown_file; validated slides always carry markdown.
color	string	"inherit"	CSS color value for the rendered text. Default 'inherit' picks up the slide-level body color.
text_align	"left" | "center" | "right"	"left"	Horizontal text alignment within the element box.

Every element also shares the common fields — position, size, anchor, opacity, scale, and angle.

Example

{
  // A text block, 80% wide, inset from the top-left.
  // Multi-line content uses JSON5 line continuations (\ at end of line)
  // so the markdown stays readable in source.
  markdown: "## Section title\n\
\n\
Body copy with **bold** and _italic_.",
  position: [10, 10],
  width: 80,
}
