Loose Notes

  • http://lab.hakim.se/reveal-js/

The framework is called impress.js. It’s not technically GitHub pages specific, but Pages works well.

  • http://earlyandoften.wordpress.com/2012/01/16/impress_js_github/
  • https://github.com/bartaz/impress.js/wiki/Examples-and-demos
  • https://github.com/bmcmurray/hekyll
  • http://www.paulund.co.uk/no-more-powerpoint-i-have-impress-js

Can also fork one an existing presentation and clear out the _posts folder.

Re: Accessibility - ‘It’s semantic HTML. So better than Powerpoint. Disable javascript and take a look. (or view source)’
