Workflow when using these slides

1. Fork this repo and clone your fork.
2. Install renv and run renv::restore() to install dependencies from the renv.lock file provided with this repo.
3. Update slides/slides.Rmd for your presentation (xaringan::inf_mr(slides/slides.Rmd) is helpful for local rendering as you develop your changes).
4. In your fork, enable GitHub Pages with / selected as the source folder. You'll be able to find your presentation at <your-username>.github.io/simChef-culinary-school/slides/slides.html.
5. Have a great presentation!
6. Back in this repo, create a folder like slides/talks/YYYY-MM-DD-place and add your slides.Rmd, css/culinary.css, rendered slides.html, and any other files needed to reproduce your talk (e.g., files you added to images/). Other than the .html, no need to add files generated by the .Rmd.
7. If you want to contribute updates to this repo's template, please feel free to just make them (don't forget to add your name to the author field and update the date field in the slides.Rmd preamble) or open a PR if you want feedback.
8. We can also create branches to track different versions of these slides for different purposes/audiences.

Customizing the look and feel

The first R chunk in slides.Rmd, named xaringan-themer, controls the theme, fonts, and colors for the slides. Check out the xaringanthemer docs for more info.

There are some custom CSS rules defined in slides/css/culinary.css. The mdn web docs provide a good reference for writing CSS.

Keyboard shortcuts while presenting

• Type F for full-screen.
• Type O to open a tile overview of the presentation
• Type Alt/Option-F to fit slides to full window (refresh to return to normal).
• Type Ctrl-F to search within the slides (click the magnifying glass icon to remove search box).
• Type a number following by Enter to jump to a specific slide number (e.g., 10 Enter is like changing the end of the URL to #10).
• Press the Home key to go to the title slide.
• Press the End key to go to the final slide.

How these slides were made
