Slide show UI
You can specify custom slides-now options using markdown reference syntax. Here are a few available options:
[slides-now-theme]: "classic"
cube|coverflow|concave|carousel|bw
[slides-now-footer]: "My talk"
[slides-now-font-family]: "Arial"
[slides-now-font-size]: "26pt"
// presentation should last 2 minutes
[slides-now-timer]: "2"
The options should be at the end of the document.
Dev notes
Installation:
bower install
npm install
Open dist/index.html in a browser, use local file, not http server due to caching (or use new port every time).
Timer bar
Add a timer bar crawling along the bottom to limit the presentation time.
- pause / resume the timer using p key
Inspiration
Several open source projects inspired me to create slides-now. Check them out!
