GitPitch Desktop
The Desktop App has been given a makeover. A major makeover. With a new user interface, improved navigation, an embedded markdown editor, and built-in help. The new desktop experience is a joy. The app is also at the heart of exciting new features including Grid Layouts.
Grid Layouts
At its core the GitPitch 4.0 redesign is built around a brand new grid layouts system. This innovative system replicates the layout precision of traditional drag-and-drop solutions directly within the markdown for your slide decks. Giving you pixel-perfect control over the positioning and sizing of your slide content. You won't believe it until you see it!
Grid Native
GitPitch has always supported rich slide content. From basic markdown, including text, lists, and images to more sophisticated and interactive content including live code presenting powered by Markdown Widget Syntax. In 4.0 widgets have been upgraded to become 100% Grid Native.
Synchronized Stacks
Rendering simple list content remains a core feature for most presentation tools. With the release of Grid Stacks 4.0 introduces brand new rendering behaviors for rich slide content. Including code, diagrams, videos, math formulas and more. These behaviors combined with slide content synchronizations across both stack and list content are a joy to behold.
Modular Markdown
With GitPitch you manage your slide decks and training materials the same way you manage code. Your slide markdown is modular by design. And natively under Git version control. In 4.0 modular markdown support has taken giant leaps forward with the introduction of Markdown Injection, Markdown Variables, Markdown Globals, and Markdown Templates. If you are building training or course materials these exciting new modularization features are a must see.
And There's More
As you browse these docs you'll find lots more new features. Including Grid Fit for content. Grid Animations. Among many other delights. I simply encourage you to enjoy these discoveries as you familiarize yourself with GitPitch 4.0.
