[ANN] Slipshow!

It is with a blatant denial of the current situation that I announce the next release of Slipshow:

Slipshow 0.10.0: Don’t look {up}

The asteroid star of the release is the new warnings that the compiler can raise to help you write a bug-free presentation. Those warnings are visible on the command-line, but also in the hot-reloading preview in serve mode!

Warnings will hopefully help detect bugs in your presentations and improve the experience, especially of newcomers!

This time, I’d like to thanks @Alistair for the incredible Grace :nail_polish: library. Whenever I look somewhere, I find a new OCaml pearl. Thank you for that! This library, the ecosystem, open-source, are all awesome things.

And thanks again to NLNet for supporting the development of Slipshow!
