A CSS 3D slideshow tool for quickly creating good looking HTML presentations. Doesn't _rely_ on any external libraries but [highlight.js](http://softwaremaniacs.org/soft/highlight/en/description/) is included by default for code highlighting.

Note that this requires a browser with support for CSS 3D transforms and ``classList``. If CSS 3D support is not detected, the presentation will degrade to less exciting 2D transitions. You could also use a polyfill for ``classList`` to make this work in < iOS 5 and < Safari 5.1, [here's one](https://github.com/remy/polyfills/blob/master/classList.js) from [@remy](https://github.com/remy).

[Send me a link](http://hakim.se/about/contact) if you used reveal.js for a project or presentation.

# Usage

Markup heirarchy needs to be ``<div id="reveal"> <div class="slides"> <section>`` where the ``<section>`` represents one slide and can be repeated indefinitely. If you place multiple ``<section>``'s inside of another ``<section>`` they will be shown as vertical slides.

At the end of your page, after ``<script src="js/reveal.js"></script>``, you need to initialize reveal. Note that all config values are optional.

```
Reveal.initialize({
  // Display controls in the bottom right corner
	controls: true,

	// Display a presentation progress bar
	progress: true,

	// If true; each slide will be pushed to the browser history
	history: true,

	// Flags if mouse wheel navigation should be enabled
	mouseWheel: true,

	// Apply a 3D roll to links on hover
	rollingLinks: true,

	// UI style
	theme: 'default', // default/neon

	// Transition style
	transition: 'default' // default/cube/page/concave/linear(2d)
});
```
