Ordered list item 1 2. Ordered list item 2 1. Nested item 2.1 2. Nested item 2.2 ::: ::: ::: # Adding Content ## Inserting Images You can add images to your slides like this: ![A cute cat](figures/cat.avif) ## Creating Columns :::{.columns} :::{.column width="50%"} This is the content for the left column. You can add any content here, like text, images, or code. ::: :::{.column width="50%"} This is the content for the right column. - List item 1 - List item 2 ::: ::: ## Incremental Slides You can reveal content incrementally: :::{.incremental} - First item - Second item - Third item ::: ## Fragment Animations Fragments allow you to fade in content: :::{.fragment .fade-in} This content will fade in. ::: :::{.fragment .fade-in-then-out} And this content will fade in next. ::: ## Blockquotes > "The only way to do great work is to love what you do." - Steve Jobs # Code Snippets ## Embedding Python Code You can include Python code in your slides (and highlight specific lines): ```{python} #| code-line-numbers: "|4|6" #| echo: true #| eval: true import pandas as pd import matplotlib.pyplot as plt df = pd.DataFrame({'A': [1, 2, 3], 'B': [4, 5, 6]}) df.plot(kind='bar') plt.show() ``` ## Syntax Highlighting Quarto supports syntax highlighting for various languages: ```python def fibonacci(n): if n <= 0: return [] elif n == 1: return elif n == 2: return [0, 1] else: fib = [0, 1] for i in range(2, n): fib.append(fib[i-1] + fib[i-2]) return fib ``` # Themes and Transitions ## Changing Themes You can change the presentation theme in the YAML header: ```yaml format: revealjs: theme: moon ``` Some popular themes include `moon`, `black`, `white`, and `league`. More themes are available in the [Revealjs documentation](https://revealjs.com/themes/). ## Slide Transitions You can customize slide transitions in the YAML header: ```yaml format: revealjs: transition: slide ``` Available transitions include `none`, `fade`, `slide`, `convex`, `concave`, and `zoom`. You can also customise the transition in each slide. # Slide Customisation using `style` ## Slide Background {background-image="figures/background.jpg"} :::{style="color: black;"} You can set a background image for a slide ::: ## Slide Alignment You can align the content of a slide: :::{style="text-align: center;"} This content is centered. ::: :::{style="text-align: right;"} This content is right-aligned. ::: ## Change font size You can change the font size of the content: :::{style="font-size: 24px;"} This content has a font size of 24px. ::: :::{style="font-size: 36px;"} This content has a font size of 36px. ::: ## Nesting Styles You can nest styles within each other: :::{style="font-size: 24px; text-align: center; background-color: lightblue;"} This content is centred with a font size of 24px and a light blue background. :::{style="color: red;"} This nested content is red. ::: ::: ## Asides and Footnotes - Green ^[A footnote] - Brown - Purple :::{style="margin-top: 300px;"} ::: ::: aside Some additional commentary of more peripheral interest. ::: ## Additional Resources - [Quarto Documentation](https://quarto.org/docs/presentations/) - [Revealjs Documentation](https://revealjs.com/) - [Quarto Gallery](https://quarto.org/docs/gallery/) # Thank You!
