Asciidoc-driven slides?

Hello everyone,

If I remember correctly Dan showed some Asciidoc powered slides back at Devoxx 2013. I wonder what are the constituents parts of that tool chain. Also found this

https://github.com/aestasit/slidery
https://github.com/aestasit/slidery-gradle

Perhaps we can do something too ;-)

Cheers,
Andres

Andres,

Dan and I have been doing slides created from AsciiDoc for the past couple of years :) they're simply different backends that kick out html5 based presentations. Any of the current tool chains in the Asciidoctor universe should be able to do it, including the gradle plugin :)

Great!

But does this mean you have to write Asciidoc in such a way that it produces the right HTML output that can be consumed by those other tools? I was thinking perhaps we would need a syntax "closer to home" or perhaps a set of stylesheets and what not.

Hi,

Well creating slides from AsciiDoc format is as easy as downloading the backend and create an AsciiDoc following some rules. Of course each slide backend implements their own but they are so similar. For example one new section means a new slide and so on...

Here you can see the dzslides backend

https://github.com/asciidoctor/asciidoctor-backends/tree/master/slim/dzslides

As you can see you simply defines for each AsciiDoc element which html should be the output (well in fact we are using Tilt to generate it).

Don't know if this answers your question or not.
