You are recommended to use the [RStudio IDE](https://www.rstudio.com/products/rstudio/), but you do not have to.
- Create a new R Markdown document from the menu `File -> New File -> R Markdown -> From Template -> Ninja Presentation`;<sup>1</sup>
--
- Click the `Knit` button to compile it;
--
- or use the [RStudio Addin](https://rstudio.github.io/rstudioaddins/)<sup>2</sup> "Infinite Moon Reader" to live preview the slides (every time you update and save the Rmd document, the slides will be automatically reloaded in RStudio Viewer.

# Hello Ninja
As a presentation ninja, you certainly should not be satisfied by the "Hello World" example. You need to understand more about two things:
1. The [remark.js](https://remarkjs.com) library;
1. The **xaringan** package;
Basically **xaringan** injected the chakra of R Markdown (minus Pandoc) into **remark.js**. The slides are rendered by remark.js in the web browser, and the Markdown source needed by remark.js is generated from R Markdown (**knitr**).

# remark.js
You can see an introduction of remark.js from [its homepage](https://remarkjs.com). You should read the [remark.js Wiki](https://github.com/gnab/remark/wiki) at least once to know how to
- create a new slide (Markdown syntax<sup>*</sup> and slide properties);
- format a slide (e.g. text alignment);
- configure the slideshow;
- and use the presentation (keyboard shortcuts).
It is important to be familiar with remark.js before you can understand the options in **xaringan**.
.footnote[[*] It is different with Pandoc's Markdown! It is limited but should be enough for presentation purposes. Come on... You do not need a slide for the Table of Contents! Well, the Markdown support in remark.js [may be improved](https://github.com/gnab/remark/issues/142) in the future.]
