reveal.js is an HTML-based framework for creating presentations. Using web-based slides lets you do things like embed videos or put clickable elements in your slides - anything that you could do in a webpage.
The easiest way to get started is to use the cdsc_tex set of tools. These are also used to create new LaTeX documents. You can put these in a new directory (this will put them in ~/tex/
).
mkdir ~/tex/
cd ~/tex/
git clone git@code.communitydata.cc:cdsc_tex
This code directory includes a number of bash scripts which create different types of documents (knitr, plain LaTeX, revealjs, etc.). To use these scripts, you should add them to your $PATH. One way to do this is to make a symlink to ~/bin
for each script:
ln -s ~/tex/cdsc_tex/new* ~/bin/
Then, from any directory you can run
new_revealjs_presentation PresentationName
and it will create a new directory called PresentationName with a file called PresentationName.Rmd which is an R Markdown file that produces reveal.js slides, with examples of a few things that you might want to do.
