When someone says "you should use the cloud", I'm never sure if they mean: 1: use a virtual server rather than running your own hardware, or 2: use hosted services rather than running your own e.g. database 2 is often surprisingly expensive IME.

@elbosso Of course you can weigh in! :) I've used reveal.js for several presentations in the past, and I liked it. The presentations looked great, especially with syntax highlighting. I did find myself futzing with written HTML more than I wanted though (e.g. wanting an image caption in a specific place). It's also a little harder to share than a hosted service, especially if you want reader comments. Definitely a great option in many cases still.

rustc is the only self-hosted compiler I've seen that uses external packages in the target language. Are there others?
