Presentation Builder

A simplistic way to create stunning presentations with speed using Reveal.js and Docker.

Capabilities

1. Convert markdown to reveal.js presentation slides.
2. Watch input for changes and automatically rebuild presentation (manual page refresh required).
3. Serve your presentation from a distributable container.

Prerequisites

Docker is the only requirement.

Usage

In any case, this repo can be cloned and used as a skeleton for creating your presentation.

Working on your presentation

• Run prepare.sh
• Modify input/slides.md
• Place resources in input/res/

Notes:

• input/slides.md represents your slides.
• Any resources that you reference in input/slides.md should be placed in input/res/.
• prepare.sh rebuilds the presentation upon changes to the input folder. The browser requires manual refresh however.

Presenting Locally

Run present.sh.

The only difference between this and prepare.sh is that present.sh does not monitor for changes. It will still serve the content from the container, however.

Distributing

If you wish to serve your talk in a simple way, you can grab the files from the output folder and drop them anywhere you can serve a webpage.
