Welcome to the wonderful world of Talkie.js, a slide library built with the elegance of web components. This guide simplifies the use of Talkie.js, breaking down its features and providing essential troubleshooting tips to enhance your experience.
Getting Started with Talkie.js
To get your presentation up and running, you’ll need to download the necessary files:
- dist/talkie.min.css
- dist/talkie.theme-default.css
- dist/talkie.min.js
Once you have the files, you can create a simple HTML presentation with just a few lines of code, as shown below:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="dist/talkie.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="dist/talkie.theme-default.css">
</head>
<body>
<!-- Pure HTML style -->
<tk-slide layout>
<h1>Slide 1</h1>
</tk-slide>
<!-- Markdown style (require type attribute) -->
<tk-slide layout type="text/x-markdown">
# Slide 2
</tk-slide>
<script src="dist/webcomponents-loader.js"></script>
<script src="dist/talkie.js"></script>
<script>
window.addEventListener("WebComponentsReady", function(e) {
document.body.className += " webcomponents-ready";
talkie.run();
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
Understanding the Code: A Simple Analogy
Think of your HTML presentation as a theater performance. The files you download act like the stage and costume designers — they provide everything needed to set the scene for your show. Each tk-slide
represents a scene change, where the actors (your content) perform based on the script (the code). With just a few simple commands, you direct your audience (the viewers) on how to experience your presentation.
Key Features
Talkie.js comes packed with an array of features:
- Markdown Support
- Code Highlighting
- Keyboard and Touch Control
- Responsive Scaling (4:3, 16:9)
- Fullscreen Mode
- Accessibility Support
- Background Image Filter
- Progress Indicator
Advanced Options
Here are some advanced functionalities you might find useful:
- To change the default slide ratio from 4:3 to 16:9, use:
talkie.run({ wide: true });
talkie.run({ horizontal: true });
<tk-slide layout backface="background-image.jpg" backface-filter="blur(1px) brightness(.8)">
<h1>Title</h1>
<p>foo, bar, baz, qux...</p>
</tk-slide>
