Playback

• Parsed using marked
• Slides will be shown using bespoke.js

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.

• slides-now-timer: "30"
• pause / resume the timer using p key
