Welcome to the slide deck for my Fall 2025 chess lessons

Running one slide deck

To start the deck, visit:

• npm install
• npx slidev slides/week1/week1.md
• visit http://localhost:3030

To build full system

1. Build individual slide decks:

• npx slidev build slides/week1/week1.md --out dist/week1 --base /chess-lectures/week1/
• npx slidev build slides/week2/week2.md --out dist/week2 --base /chess-lectures/week2/

2. Copy slide decks into build folder such as .local/site/chess-lectures

3. Copy index.html to the root repository

4. Run HTTP server such as npx vite preview

5. Open http://localhost:4173/chess-lectures/

Public website

The website deployed at https://vzcodes.github.io/chess-lectures-fall-2025/ runs a slightly complex build which goes through each of the folders under /slides before adding all assets to the correct folder. Feel free to see the build yaml file here.
