.left-column[ ## What is it? ## Why use it? ] .right-column[ If your ideal slideshow creation workflow contains any of the following steps:
Just write what's on your mind
Do some basic styling
Easily collaborate with others
Share with and show to everyone
Then remark might be perfect for your next.red[*] slideshow!
.footnote[.red[*] You probably want to convert existing slideshows as well]
]
.left-column[ ## What is it? ## Why use it? ] .right-column[ As the slideshow is expressed using Markdown, you may:
- Focus on the content, expressing yourself in next to plain text not worrying what flashy graphics and disturbing effects to put where
As the slideshow is actually an HTML document, you may:
Display it in any decent browser
Style it using regular CSS, just like any other HTML content
Use it offline!
As the slideshow is contained in a plain file, you may:
Store it wherever you like; on your computer, hosted from your Dropbox, hosted on Github Pages alongside the stuff you're presenting...
Easily collaborate with others, keeping track of changes using your favourite SCM tool, like Git or Mercurial

## How does it work, then?

.left-column[ ## How does it work?
- Markdown
] .right-column[ A Markdown-formatted chunk of text is transformed into individual slides by JavaScript running in the browser:
# Slide 1
This is slide 1
Slide 2
This is slide 2
.slides[ .first[ ### Slide 1 This is slide 1 ] .second[ ### Slide 2 This is slide 2 ] ]
Regular Markdown rules apply with only a single exception:
- A line containing three dashes constitutes a new slide
(not a horizontal rule,
<hr />
)
Have a look at the Markdown website if you're not familiar with Markdown formatting.

.left-column[ ## How does it work? ### - Markdown ### - Inside HTML ] .right-column[ A simple HTML document is needed for hosting the styles, Markdown and the generated slides themselves:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
/* Slideshow styles */
</style>
</head>
<body>
<textarea id="source">
<!-- Slideshow Markdown -->
</textarea>
<script type="text/javascript" src="remark.js">
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var slideshow = remark.create();
</script>
</body>
</html>
You may download remark to have your slideshow not depend on any online resources, or reference the latest version online directly.

## Of course, Markdown can only go so far.
.left-column[ ## Markdown extensions ] .right-column[ To help out with slide layout and formatting, a few Markdown extensions have been included:
Slide properties, for naming, styling and templating slides
Content classes, for styling specific content
Syntax highlighting, supporting a range of languages ]
.left-column[ ## Markdown extensions ### - Slide properties ] .right-column[ Initial lines containing key-value pairs are extracted as slide properties:
name: agenda
class: middle, center
Agenda
The name of this slide is {{ name }}.
Slide properties serve multiple purposes:
Naming and styling slides using properties
name
andclass
Using slides as templates using properties
template
andlayout
Expansion of
{{ property }}
expressions to property values
See the complete list of slide properties.

.left-column[ ## Markdown extensions ### - Slide properties ### - Content classes ] .right-column[ Any occurences of one or more dotted CSS class names followed by square brackets are replaced with the contents of the brackets with the specified classes applied:
.footnote[.red.bold[*] Important footnote]
Resulting HTML extract:
<span class="footnote">
<span class="red bold">*</span> Important footnote
</span>
]
.left-column[ ## Markdown extensions ### - Slide properties ### - Content classes ### - Syntax Highlighting ] .right-column[ Code blocks can be syntax highlighted by specifying a language from the set of supported languages .
Using GFM fenced code blocks you can easily specify highlighting language:
.pull-left[
javascript
function add(a, b)
return a + b
end
] .pull-right[
ruby
def add(a, b)
a + b
end
]
A number of highlighting styles are available, including several well-known themes from different editors and IDEs.

.left-column[ ## Presenter mode ] .right-column[ To help out with giving presentations, a presenter mode comprising the following features is provided:
Display of slide notes for the current slide, to help you remember key points
Display of upcoming slide, to let you know what's coming
Cloning of slideshow for viewing on extended display
]
.left-column[ ## Presenter mode ### - Inline notes ] .right-column[ Just like three dashes separate slides, three question marks separate slide content from slide notes:
Slide 1 content
???
Slide 1 notes
Slide 2 content
???
Slide 2 notes
Slide notes are also treated as Markdown, and will be converted in the same manner slide content is.
Pressing P will toggle presenter mode. ] ??? Congratulations, you just toggled presenter mode!
Now press P to toggle it back off.
.left-column[ ## Presenter mode ### - Inline notes ### - Cloned view ] .right-column[ Presenter mode of course makes no sense to the audience.
Creating a cloned view of your slideshow lets you:
Move the cloned view to the extended display visible to the audience
Put the original slideshow in presenter mode
Navigate as usual, and the cloned view will automatically keep up with the original
Pressing C will open a cloned view of the current slideshow in a new browser window.
