GitBook has been replaced in favour of Remark along with many other exciting new changes!
Slides & Format
- New slides, now with 100% more actual slides!
- New colour scheme
- Graphical overhaul, almost every single visual aid was re-illustrated with the exception of two from module 6 (which should probably stay that way)
- All markdown has been moved inside the respective module
presentation.htmlfile. Despite it's ugly appearance, it's still markdown on the inside and that's what counts! - The
worksheetfolder has been renamed tohandoutsand now contains PDFs of the slides made with Decktape!
New typographical style
- .highlight[highlighted text here!] class is used to emphasize important things whereas
markdown inline codeis now used only for technical actions. - .footer[here's my footer text] is now also a thing because footers are fun.
Module specific changes
- The module four Fort York specific images have been removed, an early push for modularity & location agnostic changes
- Spelling has been fixed here & there but who knows exactly where!?
Build Scripts & Technical Bits
- Goodbye GitBook, your service no longer required! GitBook has been removed from all build & dependency install scripts.
- Hello Remark! Remark has been added to a new
slide-filesdirectory which contains all the technical files that make our slides look nice including CSS & fonts - the new pdf.css (wip-pdf.css) for markdown-pdf is not ready for prime time because the
font-faceproperty doesn't work. See #80 (comment) for more information as to why that is.
Website
The website has been updated minimally to closer match the style of the workshop.
- No more grey border around images
- Better sidebar colours
- Over-compressed header text is now not like that anymore
- New shinier download button
- Fonts match the workshop now
