Inspire.js

Lean, hackable, extensible slide deck framework. Create basic slides by just writing HTML and CSS, do fancy custom stuff with JS, the sky is the limit!

Getting started

• Copy (and rename) blank.html somewhere
• Also copy talk.css, theme.css
• Add Your Own Content
• Add talk-specific styling to talk.css

Previously known as CSSS.

If you were using CSSS and would rather stay at it, run git checkout v1.0.0 and stay there.

Migrating from CSSS

• Almost all HTML syntax is the same! The same JS events are still fired. So, very little should break.
• slideshow.css is now inspire.css
• slideshow.js is now inspire.js
• You don't need to run JS to create a slideshow, it is created automatically.
• The SlideShow JS class is now Inspire
• The slideshow JS variable is now Inspire
• Presenter view will not be loaded unless there is at least one class="presenter-notes" item.
• The CSS Controls plugin is now gone. Use Mavo if you need this functionality.
• The CSS Snippets plugin is now gone. We will soon add a much better one, extracted based on the live demo script in https://github.com/leaverou/talks.
• Incrementable is no longer a plugin. Use the separate script from https://github.com/leaverou/incrementable.
• reusable.css has now been merged into the default theme, theme.css.
• data-import is now data-insert

API FAQ

Running code after any imports have loaded

await Inspire.importsLoaded;
// code to run after imports have loaded

Note that await needs to be inside an async function otherwise it will error. However, this could just be a self-executing async function.

Running code after a specific plugin has loaded

await Inspire.importsLoaded;
await Inspire.plugins.loaded.PLUGIN_ID.loaded;
// code to run after the plugin with id PLUGIN_ID has loaded and executed

or:

await Inspire.loadPlugin(PLUGIN_ID);
// code to run after the plugin with id PLUGIN_ID has loaded and executed

The second example would load the plugin if it hasn't otherwise been loaded, but if it will never be loaded twice.

Running code when a specific slide is displayed

You can do this via the slidechange hook:

Inspire.hooks.add("slidechange", env => {
	if (Inspire.currentSlide.id === "slide-id") {
		// Code to run
	}
});

or, via an event:

document.addEventListener("slidechange", evt => {
	if (Inspire.currentSlide.id === "slide-id") {
		// Code to run
	}
});

Running code when a specific slide is displayed for the first time

You can do this via the slidechange hook:

Inspire.hooks.add("slidechange", env => {
	if (Inspire.currentSlide.id === "slide-id" && env.firstTime) {
		// Code to run
	}
});

or, via an event:

document.addEventListener("slidechange", evt => {
	if (Inspire.currentSlide.id === "slide-id" && evt.firstTime) {
		// Code to run
	}
});

or:

$("#slide-id").addEventListener("slidechange", evt => {
	// Code to run
}, {once: true});

Running code after a specific slide has been displayed

You can do this via the slidechange hook:

Inspire.hooks.add("slidechange", env => {
	if (env.prevSlide.id === "slide-id") {
		// Code to run
	}
});

or, via an event:

document.addEventListener("slidechange", evt => {
	if (evt.prevSlide.id === "slide-id") {
		// Code to run
	}
});
