A simple slide deck with no dependancies (except you'll need an ES5 capable browser like Opera 11+, FireFox 4+, Safari 4+, or Chrome Whatever+.)
Minideck isn't intended to be a deck.js clone, but it solves a similar problem. It tries to separate style from behaviour, so you won't find ANY explicit CSS
in the behaviour.js file. You can write your own CSS, but an example template (based on my Web Directions South 2011 presentation) is included.
All you have to do is include the JS file, like so. There are no methods to call, no API, no funny business.
<script src="behaviour.js" type="text/javascript"></script>It looks for HTML5 <section> elements with a class of slide. They're ordered by the order in which they appear in the document.
There are two boolean attributes you may add to any element which sits within a slide:
order- Tells minideck.js to include this element in the animation queue. A class of visible will be added to the element when it is reached.autohide- Tells minideck.js to 'hide' this element once the next element in the queue is displayed. This basically means a class of 'hidden' and another class of 'autohidden' are added to the element.
Up and right cursor/arrow keys, as well as return and space advance the animation queue, moving to the next slide once the animation queue is drained. The left and down cursor/arrow keys move back one slide, but they do not change the position in the per-slide animation queue.
The g key allows you to jump to a particular slide.
Deck.js was too big. And I didn't want to include jQuery (so sue me.) And I've got a not-invented-here prejudice against jQuery plugins (so sue me.)
I'd like to switch the css classes to .past, .current/.present, and .future as I think it's a little more understandable and possibly a little more flexible.
Also there's some weirdness with onhashchange. I'll squash it soon.
