Reveal.js
This project is a web-native presentation framework that renders slide decks from standard HTML or Markdown. It functions as a declarative slide engine, managing navigation, state persistence, and lifecycle events through a configuration-driven interface. By leveraging standard web technologies, it enables the creation of responsive, browser-based presentations that support complex layouts, nested transitions, and interactive content.
The framework distinguishes itself through a modular, plugin-based architecture that allows developers to extend core functionality using custom hooks and event listeners. It provides sophisticated visual control, including CSS-transform-based scaling to ensure content fits any viewport, automated element animations between slides, and incremental rendering of content fragments. Additionally, it supports multi-directional navigation, including vertical slide stacks, and offers robust synchronization capabilities for remote presentation control and multi-device audience tracking.
Beyond its core engine, the project includes comprehensive utilities for technical documentation, such as syntax-highlighted code blocks with line-specific focus and integrated mathematical typesetting. It provides native support for React-based applications through dedicated components and adapters, and includes tools for exporting presentations to PDF. The framework is designed for flexibility, allowing for custom themes, dynamic configuration updates, and the embedding of interactive media or external web content directly into the slide deck.
The project is distributed as an ES module, facilitating integration into modern build processes and script bundling environments.
