• title: The title of your presentation, this appears on the first slide and, depending on the framework chosen, in the title bar of your browser.

• hitheme: The highlighter theme
• widgets: Include widgets as necessary, see widgets for more information
• mode: How the document should be prepared.
  • standalone creates a single HTML file that can be shared, but it uses CDN for library assets, so you will require an internet connection to view the presentation.
  • selfcontained, bundles everything in a single folder (usually author()) and can be pushed to github/dropbox or shared as a zipped file, viewable offline
  • draft delivers all library assets from your R package installation, allowing you to experiment with different frameworks, highlighters and widgets, without worrying about cluttering your working folder. The html file created is NOT portable, since all paths are hard coded to your computer.
• license | The license of your presentation, this appears on the first slide at the bottom.

R Code/Message/Warning Suppression

It's not uncommon to suppress code, warnings and messages that R generates for the purpose of presentation. To do so throughout your document, you can set global chunk options for your presentation just after YAML content, as follows:

`r opts_chunk$set(echo=FALSE,message=FALSE,comment="")`
