3 A framework for easily creating beautiful presentations using HTML. [Check out the live demo](http://lab.hakim.se/reveal-js/).
5 reveal.js comes with a broad range of features including [nested slides](https://github.com/hakimel/reveal.js#markup), [markdown contents](https://github.com/hakimel/reveal.js#markdown), [PDF export](https://github.com/hakimel/reveal.js#pdf-export), [speaker notes](https://github.com/hakimel/reveal.js#speaker-notes) and a [JavaScript API](https://github.com/hakimel/reveal.js#api). It's best viewed in a browser with support for CSS 3D transforms but [fallbacks](https://github.com/hakimel/reveal.js/wiki/Browser-Support) are available to make sure your presentation can still be viewed elsewhere.

15 Slides are written using HTML or markdown but there's also an online editor for those of you who prefer a more traditional user interface. Give it a try at [www.rvl.io](http://www.rvl.io).
22 Markup heirarchy needs to be ``<div class="reveal"> <div class="slides"> <section>`` where the ``<section>`` represents one slide and can be repeated indefinitely. If you place multiple ``<section>``'s inside of another ``<section>`` they will be shown as vertical slides. The first of the vertical slides is the "root" of the others (at the top), and it will be included in the horizontal sequence. For example:
27 <section>Single Horizontal Slide</section>
29 <section>Vertical Slide 1</section>
30 <section>Vertical Slide 2</section>
38 It's possible to write your slides using Markdown. To enable Markdown, add the ```data-markdown``` attribute to your ```<section>``` elements and wrap the contents in a ```<script type="text/template">``` like the example below.
40 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/). This is sensitive to indentation (avoid mixing tabs and spaces) and line breaks (avoid consecutive breaks).
43 <section data-markdown>
44 <script type="text/template">
47 A paragraph with some text and a [link](http://hakim.se).
55 At the end of your page you need to initialize reveal by running the following code. Note that all config values are optional and will default as specified below.
59 // Display controls in the bottom right corner
62 // Display a presentation progress bar
65 // Push each slide change to the browser history
68 // Enable keyboard shortcuts for navigation
71 // Enable the slide overview mode
74 // Loop the presentation
77 // Number of milliseconds between automatically proceeding to the
78 // next slide, disabled when set to 0, this value can be overwritten
79 // by using a data-autoslide attribute on your slides
82 // Enable slide navigation via mouse wheel
85 // Apply a 3D roll to links on hover
89 transition: 'default' // default/cube/page/concave/zoom/linear/none
95 Reveal.js doesn't _rely_ on any third party scripts to work but a few optional libraries are included by default. These libraries are loaded as dependencies in the order they appear, for example:
100 // Syntax highlight for <code> elements
101 { src: 'lib/js/highlight.js', async: true, callback: function() { window.hljs.initHighlightingOnLoad(); } },
102 // Cross-browser shim that fully implements classList - https://github.com/eligrey/classList.js/
103 { src: 'lib/js/classList.js', condition: function() { return !document.body.classList; } }
104 // Interpret Markdown in <section> elements
105 { src: 'lib/js/data-markdown.js', condition: function() { return !!document.querySelector( '[data-markdown]' ); } },
106 { src: 'lib/js/showdown.js', condition: function() { return !!document.querySelector( '[data-markdown]' ); } },
107 // Zoom in and out with Alt+click
108 { src: 'plugin/zoom-js/zoom.js', async: true, condition: function() { return !!document.body.classList; } },
110 { src: 'plugin/notes/notes.js', async: true, condition: function() { return !!document.body.classList; } }
115 You can add your own extensions using the same syntax. The following properties are available for each dependency object:
116 - **src**: Path to the script to load
117 - **async**: [optional] Flags if the script should load after reveal.js has started, defaults to false
118 - **callback**: [optional] Function to execute when the script has loaded
119 - **condition**: [optional] Function which must return true for the script to be loaded
124 The Reveal class provides a minimal JavaScript API for controlling navigation and reading state:
128 Reveal.slide( indexh, indexv );
135 Reveal.prevFragment();
136 Reveal.nextFragment();
137 Reveal.toggleOverview();
139 // Retrieves the previous and current slide elements
140 Reveal.getPreviousSlide();
141 Reveal.getCurrentSlide();
143 Reveal.getIndices(); // { h: 0, v: 0 } }
148 If you set ``data-state="somestate"`` on a slide ``<section>``, "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.
150 Furthermore you can also listen to these changes in state via JavaScript:
153 Reveal.addEventListener( 'somestate', function() {
154 // TODO: Sprinkle magic
160 The 'ready' event is fired when reveal.js has loaded all (synchronous) dependencies and is ready to start navigating.
163 Reveal.addEventListener( 'ready', function( event ) {
164 // event.currentSlide, event.indexh, event.indexv
168 ### Slide change event
170 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.
173 Reveal.addEventListener( 'slidechanged', function( event ) {
174 // event.previousSlide, event.currentSlide, event.indexh, event.indexv
180 It's easy to link between slides. The first example below targets the index of another slide whereas the second targets a slide with an ID attribute (```<section id="some-slide">```):
183 <a href="#/2/2">Link</a>
184 <a href="#/some-slide">Link</a>
187 Just press »F« on your keyboard to show your presentation in fullscreen mode. Press the »ESC« key to exit fullscreen mode.
190 Fragments are used to highlight individual elements on a slide. Every elmement with the class ```fragment``` will be stepped through before moving on to the next slide. Here's an example: http://lab.hakim.se/reveal-js/#/16
192 The default fragment style is to start out invisible and fade in. This style can be changed by appending a different class to the fragment:
196 <p class="fragment grow">grow</p>
197 <p class="fragment shrink">shrink</p>
198 <p class="fragment roll-in">roll-in</p>
199 <p class="fragment fade-out">fade-out</p>
200 <p class="fragment highlight-red">highlight-red</p>
201 <p class="fragment highlight-green">highlight-green</p>
202 <p class="fragment highlight-blue">highlight-blue</p>
208 When a slide fragment is either shown or hidden reveal.js will dispatch an event.
211 Reveal.addEventListener( 'fragmentshown', function( event ) {
212 // event.fragment = the fragment DOM element
214 Reveal.addEventListener( 'fragmenthidden', function( event ) {
215 // event.fragment = the fragment DOM element
222 Presentations can be exported to PDF via a special print stylesheet. This feature requires that you use [Google Chrome](http://google.com/chrome).
223 Here's an example of an exported presentation that's been uploaded to SlideShare: http://www.slideshare.net/hakimel/revealjs-13872948.
225 1. Open your presentation with [css/print/pdf.css](https://github.com/hakimel/reveal.js/blob/master/css/print/pdf.css) included on the page. The default index HTML lets you add *print-pdf* anywhere in the query to include the stylesheet, for example: [lab.hakim.se/reveal-js?print-pdf](http://lab.hakim.se/reveal-js?print-pdf).
226 2. Open the in-browser print dialog (CMD+P).
227 3. Change the **Destination** setting to **Save as PDF**.
228 4. Change the **Layout** to **Landscape**.
229 5. Change the **Margins** to **None**.

237 reveal.js comes with a speaker notes plugin which can be used to present per-slide notes in a separate browser window. The notes window also gives you a preview of the next upcoming slide so it may be helpful even if you haven't written any notes. Append ```?notes``` to presentation URL or press the 's' key on your keyboard to open the notes window.
239 Notes are written using the following markup structure:
245 <aside class="notes">
246 Oh hey, these are some notes. They'll be hidden in your presentation, but you can see them if you open the speaker notes window (hit 's' on your keyboard).
