ZDeck

Framework to easily build beautiful slides from asciidoc files. These files were originally part of the workshop-sessions repository. They were separated out, so that they can be generally used for creating any kind of slides.

Usage

ZDeck supports two type of presentation formats:

To create a presentation, create a folder for the presentation and within the folder invoke the following command.

$ zdeck-init <lecture|lightning>

This populates the current directory with template files, to get you started. Run make to convert the slides.asciidoc file to slides.html

$ make

Check the contents of the slides.asciidoc and the rendered output in slides.html to know the various constructs to create a presentation.
