Microsoft PowerPoint is cool. I like it! It is like a Swiss army knife for consultants. You can make beautiful slides with it. When it comes to code though, PowerPoint sucks. Really! The solution is to use reveal.js . It is cool. You can use Markdown to highlight code. It is responsive but like LaTeX, it can be tedious.

Another way to use reveal.js is through Jupyter Notebook. You just create a notebook and then use nbconvert to get reveal.js slides as well. The standard output is however boring. I seriously mean it! This repo therefore tries to bridge this gap by using customized colors and images.

Moreover, we live in a cloud native world with a cloud native lifestyle, cloud native storage, cloud native solution. Why not having cloud native presentation slides then? This repo also solves this problem by simply using cf push .

1. Create the conda environment:

   conda env create -f environment.yml
   

2. You can find a notebook template in the static folder which contains some examples like cover and divider slides, markdown syntax and many more. Here is a link for a nice intro into creating slides with Jupyter notebook.

3. When you are done with editing your notebook, you need to generate the slides with this command:

   # from ./jupyter2slides/
   python create_slides.py --file static/presentation_template.ipynb
   

4. Now you can either call this command to serve the presentation on your local machine

   python run.py --file static/presentation_template.slides.html
   

   or just use cf push to push it to the cloud. I use Flask to serve those static files.

5. To convert the slides to pdf, I use decktape :

   cd decktape-1.0.0/
   ./phantomjs decktape.js generic --keycode=Space "http://0.0.0.0:9099/" presentation_template.pdf
   

   or you can also use the ?print-pdf option but this is not recommended as the formatting is not displayed correctly.

• Python 3.6.*
• nbconvert 5.3.*
• reveal.js 3.1.0

• Presentation Template | PDF
• Interactive Template | PDF

You can change everything in the custom.css file.

If you need to change the footer, open jupyter_template.tpl and go to Change footer here .

The image used for the cover slide is from Pexel and the favicon is from freefavicon . They are both free to use.

Yes, but this is not recommended as the colors might be broken due to differences in the css styles.
