What is 2025-ct-webdev?

This repository holds the slide deck for a conference talk given at c't webdev 2025. It's a live website that serves as the visual presentation during the talk, deployed so the audience can follow along in real time. The project is tied to Vike, a web development tool, and the slides are designed to be shown on screen while the speaker presents. At a high level, it's a JavaScript-based web app that renders slides as web pages. Each slide is a separate file, and there's a built-in script that lets the presenter insert a new slide at a specific position, automatically shifting the rest down. The README also mentions image masks for OBS (Open Broadcaster Software, a popular streaming tool), which suggests the talk was streamed or recorded with camera overlays layered on top of the slides. The primary user is the speaker themselves, preparing and delivering a technical talk at a web developer conference. A concrete example: someone presenting at React Berlin or ViteConf would use this same setup to build their slide deck, deploy it as a website, and present from it live. The repo is part of a broader pattern where the same author maintains separate branches or repo copies for each conference they speak at, each with its own permanent URL. The deployment setup is notable because it leans heavily on GitHub's built-in hosting. When the presenter pushes changes to a specific branch, the slides go live automatically. The README includes step-by-step instructions for creating a new repo copy for a different conference, since GitHub doesn't allow forking your own repository. This is a practical, low-cost approach to managing talk materials without needing a dedicated presentation platform.
