Slides & Presentations

Hype can generate web-based presentations from your markdown documents using the slides command.

Basic Usage

# Start slides server on default port (3000)
hype slides presentation.md

# Use a different port
hype slides -port 8080 presentation.md

Once started, open your browser to http://localhost:3000 to view your presentation.

Creating Slides

Slides are created using the standard hype <page> element. Each <page> becomes a slide in your presentation:

<page>

# Slide 1

Welcome to my presentation!

</page>

<page>

# Slide 2

## Key Points

- Point one
- Point two
- Point three

</page>

<page>

# Code Example

<go src="example" run></go>

</page>

Features

• Live Code Execution: Code blocks with run attribute execute and display output
• Syntax Highlighting: Code blocks are automatically highlighted
• Navigation: Use left/right arrow keys to navigate between slides
• Web-based: No additional software required - just a browser

Tips

1. Keep slides focused: One main idea per slide works best
2. Use code examples: Hype's ability to execute code makes live demos easy
3. Test navigation: Check that your slides flow well before presenting
4. Assets: Place images in an assets/ folder in your working directory
