How to write slides?

The text format is based on Github Flavored Markdown.

Markdeck uses the horizontal ruler to create multi-page slides. A --- between empty lines splits the presentation into slides. This format is similar to Deckset.

Show example.md 

# Slide 1

foobar

---

# Slide 2

foobar

Directives

Markdeck’s Markdown has extended directives to affect slides. Insert HTML comment as <!-- {directive_name}: {value} -->

Pagination

You want pagination? Insert <!-- page_number: true --> at the top.

If you want to exclude the first page number, move the directive to after the first ruler.

# First page

The page number `1` is not shown.

---
<!-- page_number: true -->

# Second page

The page number `2` is shown!

Resize slide

You can resize slides with the Global Directive $size. Insert <!-- $size: 16:9 --> if you want to display slides on 16:9 screen. That’s all!

<!-- $size: 16:9 -->

$size directive supports 4:3, 16:9, A0-A8, B0-B8 and the -portrait suffix.

Markdeck also supports $width and $height directives to set a custom size.
