# reveal.js A CSS 3D slideshow tool for quickly creating good looking HTML presentations. Doesn't _rely_ on any external libraries but [highlight.js](http://softwaremaniacs.org/soft/highlight/en/description/) is included by default for code highlighting. Note that this requires a browser with support for CSS 3D transforms and ``classList``. If CSS 3D support is not detected, the presentation will degrade to less exciting 2D transitions. A [classList polyfill](http://purl.eligrey.com/github/classList.js/blob/master/classList.js) is incuded to make this work in < iOS 5, < Safari 5.1 and IE. Curious about how it looks in action? [Check out the demo page](http://lab.hakim.se/reveal-js/). ## Usage ### Markup Markup heirarchy needs to be ``
`` where the ``
`` represents one slide and can be repeated indefinitely. If you place multiple ``
``'s inside of another ``
`` they will be shown as vertical slides. For example: ```html
Single Horizontal Slide
Vertical Slide 1
Vertical Slide 2
``` ### Markdown It's possible to write your slides using Markdown. To enable Markdown simply add the ```data-markdown``` attribute to your ```
``` elements and reveal.js will automatically load the JavaScript parser. This is based on [data-markdown](https://gist.github.com/1343518) from [Paul Irish](https://github.com/paulirish) which in turn uses [showdown](https://github.com/coreyti/showdown/). Syntax support seems limited judging by my initial tests, this may be due to conflicts with the reveal.js styles. Updates to come. ```html
## Page title A paragraph with some text and a [link](http://hakim.se).
``` ### Configuration At the end of your page, after ````, you need to initialize reveal by running the following code. Note that all config values are optional and will default as specified below. ```javascript Reveal.initialize({ // Display controls in the bottom right corner controls: true, // Display a presentation progress bar progress: true, // Push each slide change to the browser history history: false, // Enable keyboard shortcuts for navigation keyboard: true, // Loop the presentation loop: false, // Number of milliseconds between automatically proceeding to the // next slide, disabled when set to 0 autoSlide: 0, // Enable slide navigation via mouse wheel mouseWheel: true, // Apply a 3D roll to links on hover rollingLinks: true, // UI style theme: 'default', // default/neon/beige // Transition style transition: 'default' // default/cube/page/concave/linear(2d) }); ``` ### API The Reveal class provides a minimal JavaScript API for controlling navigation and reading state: ```javascript // Navigation Reveal.navigateTo( indexh, indexv ); Reveal.navigateLeft(); Reveal.navigateRight(); Reveal.navigateUp(); Reveal.navigateDown(); Reveal.navigatePrev(); Reveal.navigateNext(); Reveal.toggleOverview(); // Retrieves the previous and current slide elements Reveal.getPreviousSlide(); Reveal.getCurrentSlide(); Reveal.getIndices(); // { h: 0, v: 0 } } ``` ### States If you set ``data-state="somestate"`` on a slide ``
``, "somestate" will be applied as a class on the document element when that slide is opened. This allows you to apply broad style changes to the page based on the active slide. Furthermore you can also listen to these changes in state via JavaScript: ```javascript Reveal.addEventListener( 'somestate', function() { // TODO: Sprinkle magic }, false ); ``` ### Slide change event An 'slidechanged' event is fired each time the slide is changed (regardless of state). The event object holds the index values of the current slide as well as a reference to the previous and current slide HTML nodes. ```javascript Reveal.addEventListener( 'slidechanged', function( event ) { // event.previousSlide, event.currentSlide, event.indexh, event.indexv } ); ``` ### Fragment events When a slide fragment is either shown or hidden reveal.js will dispatch an event. ```javascript Reveal.addEventListener( 'fragmentshown', function( event ) { // event.fragment = the fragment DOM element } ); Reveal.addEventListener( 'fragmenthidden', function( event ) { // event.fragment = the fragment DOM element } ); ``` ### Folder Structure - **css/** Core styles without which the project does not function - **js/** Like above but for JavaScript - **plugin/** Components that have been developed as extensions to reveal.js - **lib/** All other third party assets (JavaScript, CSS, fonts) ## Speaker Notes If you're interested in using speaker notes, reveal.js comes with a Node server that allows you to deliver your presentation in one browser while viewing speaker notes in another. To include speaker notes in your presentation, simply add an `
