    start every slide with a pandoc block setting the attributes of the slide
    slide: indicates this is a new slide, when a value is specified, the value will be used as the element id
    class: the css classes on the slide element, impressjs "step" class can be omitted and will be added by default
    
    x,y...etc are deemed as impressjs attributes they can be written in full form like data-x 1000 or "data-" part can be omitted

    more conveniently they can be written in one line, e.g.
    x -1000 y -1500 rotate-x 10 rotate-y 20 z -100 scale 1

% slide bored
% class step slide
