SIG.com Presentations

All of the slides for SIG.com are written using reveal.js

The master branch is automatically built using GitHub pages and can be viewed at https://sigdotcom.github.io/presentations/path/to/directory/.

Cloning the repository

The presentation repository utilizes the reveal.js framework and in doing so requires it as a submodule. Due to this, cloning the repository is a little trickier. Please use the following command

# With SSH
git clone --recursive [email protected]:sigdotcom/presentations.git

# With HTTPS
git clone --recursive https://github.com/sigdotcom/presentations.git

This will gather all of the necessary presentation files as well as the submodules recursively.

Opening a presentation

The easiest way to open a presentation is to open it directly in the webbrowser or use the command line. For example, let us say the the presentations repo is located at /home/local/git-local/presentations/. To open a meeting presentation you can open your favorite webbrowser and type file:///home/local/git-local/presentations/meetings/2018-02-02/index.html.

Otherwise, you can use the terminal:

firefox /home/local/git-local/presentations/meetings/2018-02-02/index.html

The same situation applies for workshops, but the path will be different.

Meeting Presentations

Any presentation that SIG.com gives during one of the meetings are stored in the meetings folder. In this folder, you will find a subfolder for each meeting in which there was a presentation using the ISO 8601 data standard which is YYYY-MM-DD.

Creating a new meeting presentation

In order to create a new meeting presentation, follow the process below:

1. Create a folder with the specific date.

   mkdir meetings/2018-02-02/

2. Copy the previous meeting presentation to preserve the template.

   cp -r meetings/2018-01-26/* meetings/2018-02-02/

3. Edit the corresponding index.html file to add the necessary sections and fields.

Workshops

SIG.com workshops are training sessions meant to provide the participates an introduction or demo to a specific topic. All folders will be labeled with the name of the workshop.
