Adding new horizontal slides is easy with ---but how do I add a vertical slide above or underneath of a slide?

The reveal.js manual says something like the following but this is not working.

        <section>Single Horizontal Slide</section>
        <section>
            <section>Vertical Slide 1</section>
            <section>Vertical Slide 2</section>
        </section>

Okay, trying to type in a Hacker Slides, and this is killing me. Every time I type like... a letter, the next two letters aren't recognized because the program is busy re-rendering the preview with the last letter in it. I've taken to typing in Notepad and copy/pasting lines into the Hacker Slides.

I'm Nena Nguyen, designer at Sandstorm. I'm reaching out to you about Hacker Slide graphics because we're currently developing an app market and working on UI improvements to the existing Sandstorm shell design. See: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/sandstorm-dev/VRkPqX61cRs/Ts37SbqqKAAJ

As a part of this redesign, existing and new apps will need to submit 3 graphics (as a part of their SPK) for aesthetic and functional purposes.

I haven't been able to find any graphics for Hacker Slides, and was informed by @paulproteus that it's likely none exist so I went ahead and made some very simple (but I think appropriate) graphics for Hacker Slides.

If you think these are suitable, I can send you the appropriate files for when we need apps to update their SPKs(soonish). If not, I'll happily send over the illustrator/svg files for you to tweak or you can choose to come up with your own set.

Let me know~

:)

Steps to reproduce:

• Go to https://oasis.sandstorm.io/demo
• Click "Try demo"
• Click "Install..."
• Find Hacker Slides & install it
• Create a new Hacker Slides grain
• Click on the words HACKER SLIDES
• Press s on the keyboard

Expected behavior:

• See presenter notes.

Actual behavior:

• 404

I'd like to use this as a convenient way of storing presentations in Sandstorm and delivering them without needing to set up a static server. Only, I'm a screen reader user and the editor is inaccessible (though apparently RevealJS is nicely accessible.)

Would it be possible to add a "Use visual editor" checkbox that is checked by default? If unchecked, we'd get a simple <textarea/> with the Markdown content. This might be beneficial for It's All Text users too; since ACE doesn't populate the text area, anyone wanting to pull the text into their own external editor would likely have a hard time doing so.

Thanks.

Hi @jacksingleton ,

This pull request does a few things:

• Switch to vagrant-spk to set up the Vagrant VM in which Sandstorm and the app run. (I built this on top of the vagrant-spk setupvm diy stack, and then copied in your existing sandstorm-pkgdef.capnp.)
• Adjust the sandstorm-pkgdef.capnp to alwaysInclude the static assets dir. Initially once I did that, it created a ~80MB package file, and I looked into why, and the answer is that node_modules was getting added seemingly unnecessarily, so I added that to be ignored.
• Then I ran into the Python 3 PYC problem thing. This is (I think) because if the PYC files are there, Python stat()s the PY & PYC files, then reads the PYC files, and spk dev doesn't record the stat()-ing of the PY files, so it doesn't record that into sandstorm-files.list. So then there are no PY files in the SPK, and then Python doesn't bother looking for PYCs. First I ran into this for the Python 3.4 core libraries; luckily you have the script in there repo to remove that stuff. So I did:

# Remove PYC files
vagrant-spk ssh
bash /opt/app/infra/clean-pycache.sh
exit
# Re-run the app, to get a fresh trace
vagrant-spk dev
# then CLICK AROUND in the app! or else it won't actually notice that flask is a dependency!!!
^C
vagrant-spk pack /tmp/app.spk

which almost worked, but then I had a similar problem with the Flask PYC files.

So I had to add another rm to the clean-pycache.sh script.

FWIW I think you don't actually get these problems if you use a virtualenv. But anyway.

Cheerio, and please review/merge/we can discuss on Tue at the meetup if you prefer!

Copy-pasting the following into your app freaks out the preview pane:

“if you want a definition of the term ‘walled garden’ as it pertains to technology, ask a man with both an iphone and a chromebook” - @malki

This appears to be because the quotes (single and double) are angled, a common Office/PowerPoint tendency.

Whenever a €-sign shows up the preview states

ERROR: The attempt to fetch ../slides.md failed with HTTP status 500.Check your browser's JavaScript console for more details.
Remember that you need to serve the presentation HTML from a HTTP server.

If I try to paste in, say, a unicode arrow (→) into my slide to replace "->", the preview pane shows an error:

I tried it with a couple other unicode arrows and got the same result, and suspect this may be the behavior with any unicode character.

Hey there,

I think hast.me is a very similar app that already has a lot of features you listed in the README.md:

• built with Meteor
• collaborative
• has auth
• similar editor

I spend some time to work on the initial code to implement the vertical slides. But i have some difficults and I take a way that seems working. I read each line text markdown only to the cursor position. Every step I keep the number of the last slide horizontal and the number of the last slide vertical.

I tested this dev of Hacker slides on my installation of sandstorm. Then I cleaned the index.js file against your repo file but I did not try to build the app.

Hello,

I can't change theme to something else than default black and white. I included link to theme css file manually, but now after each refresh presentation is first displayed in black theme and then blinks into theme I selected.

Is there a possibility to specifiy a theme in the beginning and have presentation loaded with this theme from start?

Is this the same Hacker Slides that is an app on Sandstorm (oasis.sandstorm.io)? If so, I'm having a hell of a time using it on a Mac OS X using Firefox 56.0. The app works pretty well on a PC in Chrome, but when I tried to make a new HS grain after logging in on the Mac, it was extremely sluggish, dropping characters as I typed. It seems to have something to do with the right-side preview updating every time I hit a key. It is updating so frantically that it causes me to drop lots of keys unless I type very, very slowly. It wasn't doing this on the PC in Chrome. This seems to be happening whether in plain text mode or rich-text mode.

Although the element attribute works nicely the slide attribute via markdown at the beginning of a slide doesn't seem to work:

<!-- .slide: data-background="#ffffff" -->

Or am I getting this wrong?
