Remote access

slide-ng --remote=secret     # others on your network can open the deck and follow the presenter
slide-ng --remote            # the same, without a password; it prints a warning

The command prints the public and private deck addresses and the presenter address, /presenter/1?password=secret. Use that address on the presenter's device. A viewer opens http://<your address>:4230/1?password=secret.

  • Only the dev server listens on the network, on 0.0.0.0 unless you pass --bind <address>. Its companion server stays on 127.0.0.1.
  • The password is optional, as in Slidev. Without one, the host, origin and session token of every request are still checked.
  • It lets a device sync and write. It is sent without encryption and there is no HTTPS, so use it on a network you trust.
  • Windows of one browser sync with no server. Other devices need this.

See Security for the checks the server makes. --tunnel is not available.
