Presentation mode

Pluto.jl has a built-in presentation mode that lets you view your notebook in full-screen as a slideshow.

Presentation mode can be started from the Pluto.jl interface.

Using presentation mode

In presentation mode, you can use the arrow buttons in the bottom right to move between slides. You can also use the keyboard arrow keys. Press the Escape key to exit presentation mode.

If you want to present in full screen (without the browser addres bar, etc), use your browser’s full screen mode (F11).

Slide separators

Pluto uses Markdown headers as slide separators: every time you write a header in Markdown, it is treated as a new slide. There are two slide types:

# Header 1 creates a title slide: content will be centered vertically.
## Header 2 creates a regular slide: the header appears on top of the screen, with content below.

All other headers (### etc) do not create a new slide, they will be part of the previous slide.

Example

If your notebooks contains these two cells:

md"""
# Here is a title slide!
With some extra content
"""

md"""
## This is a regular slide
Blablabla
"""
