Welcome Slide​

Every deck includes a slide in its root directory that introduces the deck. This slide is referred to as the welcome slide.

Section Title​

A section is a collection of one of more slides. Each section has a title slide referred to as the section title, this is the index.html file found at the root of the section folder.

Restrictions:

  • Cannot contain subslides

Slide​

Standard slide in reference to the slide hierarchy.

Restrictions:

  • Can only be sorted within their allocated section

Subslide​

Contained within a slide, subslides are DOM elements rather than files. They are used when wanting to drill down for more information while staying within the same slide. Their key comes from their DOM ID. By convention, they're simply numbered: subslide-1, subslide-2, etc.

<div class="subslide" id="subslide-1"><!--- ... ---></div>
<div class="subslide" id="subslide-2"><!--- ... ---></div>

See the adding subslides guide to learn how to register and naivgate between subslides.

Restrictions:

  • Must use predefined IDs: subslide-1, subslide-2, etc.
  • Must use class subslide
