Create a Markdown version of an R4E workshop slidedeck #4

Open aprilcs opened 3 years ago

aprilcs commented 3 years ago

Our workshop slidedeck is currently available as a Google Slide document, an Open Office Document, and a Powerpoint Document. You can find all these in our OSF project: https://osf.io/fw2qz/.

We would love to have a version in Markdown or other version that could be editable programmatically.

Share your thoughts and/or a converted Markdown version of the slidedeck in the comments here!

Does the formatting of a Markdown version need some edits? Share what edits we can help with here as well.

I love Markdown and I suspect this is the right approach. I'm dreaming of a setup where workshop creators can edit Markdown or RMarkdown slides directly here on Github. One point that came up in today's eLife sprint is that if so, it would be great to have an automatic validation step. That is, if someone edits a Markdown slide in Github and makes a pull request, it would be good to have a Travis-like bot that would check whether the edited version is syntactically correct for whatever slide rendering package that R4E is using. I don't know whether such a thing already exists for one or more of the slide rendering frameworks.
