Welcome to the community-contributed PHP TestFest presentations. If you have content you'd like to contribute, please feel free to submit a pull request.

All presentations in the slides/ folder use reStructuredText as their
mark-up language. reStructuredText is similar to Markdown but has a variety of
other features that make it a bit more expressive. The Sphinx project has a
great primer on how to write reStructuredText. It's easy to use.
We use Hovercraft! to convert this mark-up into presentable HTML. Under the hood, Hovercraft! uses impress.js to create beautiful presentations. Hovercraft! gives us the ability to easily accept contributions and track changes in a version control system. It's just plain text, and we like that.
The easiest way to run and preview these presentations using Hovercraft! is
to use Docker. From the slides/ directory, run the following (replacing
presentation-name with the name of the presentation you wish to preview).
This command will launch a Docker container, allowing you to preview the
presentation.
./present presentation-name.rstNow, open http://localhost:9000 in your web browser and click through the slides! In the web browser, type "h" for the help console.
That's all there is to it. Have fun!
