Frontend developers work on a number of systems

Our frontend workflow needs to be adaptable

• Because I'm a FE developer I am expected to work on number different systems
• In fact I do switch between Magento, Symfony2 and Drupal
• Next fragment
• And because of this it's important to have a workflow in place that is transferable

Transition Styles

You can select from different transitions, like: None - Fade - Slide - Convex - Concave - Zoom

Themes

reveal.js comes with a few themes built in: Black (default) - White - League - Sky - Beige - Simple Serif - Blood - Night - Moon - Solarized

Background Transitions

Different background transitions are available via the backgroundTransition option. This one's called "zoom".

Reveal.configure({ backgroundTransition: 'zoom' })

Background Transitions

You can override background transitions per-slide.

<section data-background-transition="zoom">

Pretty Code

function linkify( selector ) {
  if( supports3DTransforms ) {

    var nodes = document.querySelectorAll( selector );

    for( var i = 0, len = nodes.length; i < len; i++ ) {
      var node = nodes[i];

      if( !node.className ) {
        node.className += ' roll';
      }
    }
  }
}

Intergalactic Interconnections

You can link between slides internally, like this.

Speaker View

There's a speaker view. It includes a timer, preview of the upcoming slide as well as your speaker notes.

Press the S key to try it out.

Export to PDF

Presentations can be exported to PDF, here's an example:

Global State

Set data-state="something" on a slide and "something" will be added as a class to the document element when the slide is open. This lets you apply broader style changes, like switching the page background.

State Events

Additionally custom events can be triggered on a per slide basis by binding to the data-state name.

Reveal.addEventListener( 'customevent', function() {
	console.log( '"customevent" has fired' );
} );

Take a Moment

Press B or . on your keyboard to pause the presentation. This is helpful when you're on stage and want to take distracting slides off the screen.
