For Students#

Personal Notes#
Technologies Used#
Tools:#
Slides: reveal-hugo(revealjs)
Editor: Helix
Thoughts:#
reveal-hugo was super easy to use, once i got started. It’s nice to be able to just type out my slides and their style as opposed to dealing with a slower experieence in google slides/powerpoint.
Issues:#
Converting slides into a PDF for blog was surprisingly weird as I had to install a seperate nodejs pacakage that just scrapped the server that reveal-hugo was using. That tool took both a good amount of time to find & use as there was no example given for standard usage in the github repo.
Overall, a little annoying considering revealjs would’ve just required me to add “?export-pdf” or something like that to export the slides as intended. Besides that, reveal-hugo was a joy to use.
