Using reveal.js as presentation framework for learning resources

revealjs_as_submodule.md

inspired by Teaching with open source presentation service Reveal.js

1. Create a git repository (eg. on github)
2. Clone it to your desktop _(via ssh)

git clone git@github.com:yourusername/newrepository.git

1. change into the new directory

cd newrepository/

1. add reveal.js as submodule and initialize

git submodule add https://github.com/hakimel/reveal.js revealjs
git submodule update --init --recursive

1. change into the directory of the revealjs submodule and check that initialisation was successfull

cd revealjs/
git log
cd ..

(git log should show the commit messages of the original reveal.js repository)

1. commit the addition of the submdule and push it upstream

git commit -m "added reveal.js as submodule"
git push

1. copy the original presentation "start-file" from the submodule to the main repository

cp revealjs/index.html .

1. edit index.html - add "revealjs" at the start of all relevant paths (css, ja, lib, plugin)
2. commit the addition of the presentation "start-file" and push it upstream

git commit -m "adding file for presentation/content"
git push
