Their original slide deck sample conent also contains a lot of great examples.
Start up a local development server with:
docker run -d -p 80:8080 ryanj/gist-reveal.it
Include your own GA-TRACKER key:
docker run -e "GA_TRACKER=GA-12345678" ryanj/gist-reveal.it
docker run -e "REVEAL_WEB_HOST=YOUR_HOSTNAME_HERE" -e "REVEAL_SOCKET_SECRET=0P3N-S0URC3" ryanj/gist-reveal.it
Configure your browser as a presentation device by setting the same key in your browser's localStorage
localStorage.secret="YOUR_SECRET_KEY"
Be sure to use two different devices or brower types when testing your broadcasting relay
(FireFox vs. Chrome, desktop vs. mobile, etc.)
Try it out! You can swipe through the slides and pinch your way to the overview.
You can select from different transitions, like:
Cube -
Page -
Concave -

* Theme demos are loaded after the presentation which leads to flicker. In production you should load your theme in the <head> using a <link>.
Set data-state="something" on a slide and "something"
will be added as a class to the document element when the slide is open. This lets you
apply broader style changes, like switching the background.
Additionally custom events can be triggered on a per slide basis by binding to the data-state name.
Reveal.addEventListener( 'customevent', function() {
console.log( '"customevent" has fired' );
} );
Set data-background="#007777" on a slide to change the full page background to the given color. All CSS color formats are supported.
<section data-background="image.png">
<section data-background="image.png" data-background-repeat="repeat" data-background-size="100px">
Pass reveal.js the backgroundTransition: 'slide' config argument to make backgrounds slide rather than fade.
You can override background transitions per slide by using data-background-transition="slide".
These guys come in two forms, inline:
“The nice thing about standards is that there are so many to choose from”
and block:
“For years there has been a theory that millions of monkeys typing at random on millions of typewriters would reproduce the entire works of Shakespeare. The Internet has proven this theory to be untrue.”
function linkify( selector ) {
if( supports3DTransforms ) {
var nodes = document.querySelectorAll( selector );
for( var i = 0, len = nodes.length; i < len; i++ ) {
var node = nodes[i];
if( !node.className ) {
node.className += ' roll';
}
}
}
}
