All theme’s features are demonstrated in the index.html file. Use it as a reference while building your presentation. More detailed features overview follows below.
Theme package consists of the following folders and files:
fontsfolder with fonts in WOFF format.imagesfolder with decoration images.picturesfolder with sample pictures.stylesfolder with built styles in 16×10 and 4×3 ratios.index.htmlfile with demonstration of all features.
In addition to files theme’s repository contains source files:
sourcefolder with font source files in TTF and design in Sketch.stylesfolder also contains source styles in SCSS format.
The main presentation language is set on the root element of the document, please note it and set the right one:
<html lang="en">
<html lang="ru">
Appropriate typography traditions are used based on this value. lang attribute could also be set on separate slides or elements.
The root presentation element has the main shower class and additional mode class: list for the list and full for the full screen. list mode is usually set by default, but if there’s no one, it’ll be set to list anyway and slides will be opened in the list mode. If full is set instead of list then slides will be opened in the full screen mode.
List:
<body class="shower list">
Full:
<body class="shower full">
Theme’s architecture is based on agreement that all presentation elements are nested in shower element and mode classes are hiding or showing needed elements depending on current mode.
Presentation title is marked with the caption element, which has following elements provided: <h1> for the header, <p> for the description and also links.
<header class="caption">
<h1>Presentation Title</h1>
<p><a href="">Yours Truly</a>, Famous Inc.</p>
</header>
Caption is visible only in the list mode. Don’t forget to also specify presentation title in document’s <title> element.
Badge with “Fork me on GitHub” link (or any other call to action) is marked with badge element.
<footer class="badge">
<a href="…">Fork me on Github</a>
</footer>
Badge is visible only in the list mode.
Progress bar shows how much is left until presentation end and marked with progress element visible only in full screen mode:
<div class="progress"></div>
To remove it from presentation just remove this element from document. There’s no way to hide it for specific slides.
Slides are marked with slide class. Please don’t nest slides and don’t forget closing tags, things could go wrong.
<section class="slide">
…
</section>
<section class="slide">
…
</section>
There are two slide ratios supported: 16×10 and 4×3. To enable needed one include appropriate file screen-4x3.css or screen-16x10.css. Wide screen 16×10 format is included by default.
Slide width is 1024 px for the both ratios, for 16×10 height is 640 px, for 4×3 it’s 768. Bear in mind these sizes while preparing presentation pictures. In list mode slides are scaled down 2 or 4 times and in full screen mode they are scaled dynamically based on window size.
Slide numbers help audience to remember slides for questions and open needed slide by changing number in address field. Numbers are generated automatically using CSS counters and could be turned off for specific slides.
You can hide number manually:
<section class="slide" id="off">
<style>
#off::after {
visibility: hidden;
}
</style>
</section>
Slide type clear could also hide slide number.
Types are changing slide’s look. You can set type by adding class to the main slide. There are few built-in types available in the theme, you could also describe custom types for each presentation or add it to your theme.
White type sets white background.
<section class="slide white">
Black type sets black background.
<section class="slide black">
Please note that black slide type doesn’t change text color.
Clear type turns off slide number. Use it when you need a pure slide. May be mixed with white or black type.
<section class="slide clear">
Grid set a background with two guide types: main magenta guides and additional cyan guides, setting margins, rows and columns.
<section class="slide grid">
…
</section>
All theme elements are aligned by this grid and it’s recommended to follow it while changing or extending a theme.
Simple content: headers, paragraphs, lists.
Slide header is marked with <h2> element:
<section class="slide">
<h2>Slide Header</h2>
</section>
We haven’t introduced next heading levels to not provoke slides complexity.
Paragraphs are marked with <p> element. You could also make a note, less important part of a slide, by adding a note class to a paragraph:
<section class="slide">
<p>Text</p>
<p class="note">Note</p>
</section>
There are following inline elements styled in the theme:
<a>is underlined;<strong>and<b>are bold;<em>and<i>are italic;<code>,<samp>, and<kbd>are monospaced;<sup>and<sub>make superscript and subscript indexes;<mark>highlights text with background color.
Quotes are marked with <blockquote> element which contains one or more paragraphs:
<blockquote>
<p>Flannel bicycle rights locavore selfies.</p>
</blockquote>
To add a quote’s author wrap a quote to a <figure> element and put a caption in the <figcaption> right after:
<figure>
<blockquote>
<p>Post-ironic fashion axe flexitarian</p>
</blockquote>
<figcaption>Yours Truly</figcaption>
</figure>
For creating list you must use ul (ol for numerical list).
<ol>
<li>Literally viral vegan</li>
<li>Wes Anderson chillwave Marfa
<ul>
<li>Retro meh brunch aesthetic</li>
<li>Messenger bag retro cred</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ol>
You can also create list with inner navigation by adding next class to each elements following after element from each you want start navigation:
<h2>Inner navigation</h2>
<ol>
<li>I'll be seen right away.</li>
<li>Just navigate to next slide and you'll see others.</li>
<li class="next">Hey! It's all okay ?</li>
<li class="next"> ... </li>
</ol>
And even so:
<h2>Benefits</h2>
<ol>
<li class="next">The most important advantage</li>
<li class="next">Less important advantage</li>
</ol>
<h2 class="next">Disadvantages</h2>
<ol class="next">
<li class="next">There's nothing here</li>
<li class="next"> ... </li>
</ol>
If you want to form text in two or three columns use double or triple class
<p class="double">
Echo Park 8-bit sustainable umami deep v Kickstarter.
</p>
Also work with lists:
<ul class="triple">
<li>Occupy locavore blog</li>
<li>Mustache you haven’t heard of</li>
<li>Something else</li>
</ul>
Create table by using usual table, tr, th
<table>
<tr>
<th scope="col">Gentrify</th>
<th>Twee</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<th scope="row">Messenger</th>
<td>Mixtape</td>
</tr>
</table>
Class striped stylizes your table: even rows will turn gray background
<table class="striped">
Code tag define your program code
<pre><code>function action() {
// TODO
return true;
}</code></pre>
If you want to add lines numbers use next construction:
<pre>
<code>function action() {</code>
<code> // TODO</code>
<code> return true;</code>
<code>}</code>
</pre>
When necessary emphasize that code is commented, you need to use span element with comment class;
If you want to color part of code, wrap this part with mark to add yellow background and mark with important class to add red background;
<pre><code>function <mark>action()</mark> {
<span class="comment">// TODO</span>
return <mark class="important">true</mark>;
}</code></pre>
…
Cover class on img attribute indicates that picture will be background for slide
<section class="slide">
<img class="cover" src="picture.png">
</section>
To stretch the picture in width or height, you need to set a width or height class respectively;
Use both classes width height, if you want to stretch the picture in width and height
<img class="cover width" src="picture.png">
<img class="cover height" src="picture.png">
<img class="cover width height" src="picture.png">
Shortcut for width, height:
<img class="cover w" src="picture.png">
<img class="cover h" src="picture.png">
To insert an image description, links to the author's site or other information use figure tag with figcaption
<figure>
<img class="cover" src="picture.png">
<figcaption class="white">
© Yours Truly
</figcaption>
</figure>
When necessary to add some notes for a slide, you may use footer class, that hide your notes at all time and show them when you hover to slide:
<section class="slide">
<p>Retro meh brunch aesthetic.</p>
<footer class="footer">
<p>Cosby sweater Shoreditch.</p>
</footer>
</section>
Use place class on img attribute give same effect as cover class - set background image
<section class="slide">
<img class="place" src="picture.png">
</section>
If you want collocate picture at a certain side, you need to use top / right / bottom / left class as shown below
<img class="place top" src="picture.png">
<img class="place right" src="picture.png">
<img class="place bottom" src="picture.png">
<img class="place left" src="picture.png">
You can also combine classes for location in corners:
<img class="place top left" src="picture.png">
<img class="place top right" src="picture.png">
<img class="place bottom left" src="picture.png">
<img class="place bottom right" src="picture.png">
There are slides, which need to be described in only a few words. Usually they display a call for action, define common themes, link to project or something else. To stylize this text, use the shout class.
<section class="slide">
<h2 class="shout">Shout</h2>
</section>
Add grow class to animate text from small to big size
<section class="slide">
<h2 class="shout grow">Growing Shout</h2>
</section>
Or, on the contrary, for animate text size from big to small add shrink class.
<section class="slide">
<h2 class="shout shrink">Shrinking Shout</h2>
</section>
When necessary, to spotlight some part of the slide, you may use the spotlight class:
<section class="slide">
<h2>Round spotlight</h2>
<div class="spotlight"></div>
</section>
It can be combined with place class and top / right / bottom / left classes:
<section class="slide">
<h2>Round spotlight in the corner</h2>
<div class="spotlight place top right"></div>
</section>
You can also use the next class for inner navigation:
<section class="slide">
<h2>Spotlight with inner navigation</h2>
<ol>
<li>I'll be seen right away.</li>
<li>Just navigate to next slide and you'll see others.</li>
<li class="next">Hey! It's all okay ?</li>
<li class="next"> ... </li>
</ol>
<div class="spotlight next"></div>
</section>
You can create custom style for the spotlight element, e.g., stripe spotlight:
<section class="slide">
<h2>Stripe spotlight</h2>
<style>
.stripe {
--spotlight-radius: 0;
--spotlight-opacity: 0.2;
--spotlight-width: 1024px;
--spotlight-height: 48px;
}
.stripe.line-4 {
--spotlight-top: 37px;
}
</style>
<div class="spotlight stripe line-4"></div>
</section>
You can also create CSS animation:
<section class="slide">
<h2>Spotlight with animation</h2>
<style>
@keyframes one-line {
0% {height:100%}
100% {height:50px}
}
.one-line {
animation-name: one-line;
animation-duration: 3s;
animation-delay: 2s;
--spotlight-radius: 0;
--spotlight-opacity: 0.2;
--spotlight-width: 1024px;
--spotlight-height: 48px;
--spotlight-top: 37px;
}
</style>
<div class="spotlight next one-line"></div>
</section>
Please remember that you should duplicate slides with and without a spotlight for the PDF version because PDF format doesn't support animation.
