Tips on using Reveal.js

There is a lot of great information about using Reveal.js in the project's README page on GitHub.

Their original slide deck sample conent also contains a lot of great examples.

Host your own themed slideshow index with Docker

Start up a local development server on port 8080:

docker run ryanj/gist-reveal.it

For production, I like to daemonize the process, configure a default gist_id, and make the container available on port 80:

docker run -d -p 80:8080 -e "DEFAULT_GIST=af84d40e58c5c2a908dd" ryanj/gist-reveal.it

GITHUB API RATE LIMITS

Include your own GitHub application keys if you plan on making more than 60 requests in 2 hours:

docker run -e "GH_CLIENT_SECRET=11becbb840e0ff7414b19104e9e797556498fc3f" -e "GH_CLIENT_ID=639ffe9fd9dcc4f6eb4b" ryanj/gist-reveal.it

Built-in Analytics

Include your own GA-TRACKER key:

docker run -e "GA_TRACKER=UA-12345678" ryanj/gist-reveal.it

Broadcasting Your Slide Transitions

with Socket.IO

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.)
