Output to reveal.js

[gglanzani]

[First of all, congrats on the release]

Would it be possible, like nbconvert --to slides, to output slides in reveal.js format?

I know it would add a lot of complexity to define slides boundaries, but still...

On of the biggest advantages of Stitch, is that it plays nice with DVSC. With slides, it would become an awesome environment to collaborate on presentations and courses.

It kind of works now, if you take the template from https://gist.github.com/paultopia/0c57899407aed81f6932 and use

stitch slides.md -o slides.html -t html5 --template=revealjs.html --standalone --section-divs --variable theme="beige"

You'd need to disable syntax highlighting, since reveal handles that, which isn't an option yet.

Oh cool, pandoc has a --no-hightlight option, so

stitch slides.md -o slides.html -t html5 \
    --template=revealjs.html --standalone \
    --section-divs --variable theme="beige"

should work, assuming you're in the root of reveal.js git repo so that the links in the template work out. Do you have a somewhat complex example to try it out on?

[gglanzani]

Hi Tom,

Very cool. Yes, I do have an example, I will try it out today.

When is a new slide inserted btw?

[gglanzani]

Sorry, I see that |n is the new slide command

[TomAugspurger]

There's also the --slide-level=n option, so you can configure that.

I'm going to close this for now, but let me know if you hit any issues.

[TomAugspurger]

Actually, going to reopen this as a reminder to document this, as I think it'll be pretty common.
