This library has been around a while and is pretty compact and easy to use.<p>A better page of examples (user-contributed) is here: <a href="https://github.com/bartaz/impress.js/wiki/Examples-and-demos" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/bartaz/impress.js/wiki/Examples-and-demos</a>
While this is truly, <i>ahem</i>, impressive, I sure hope a real presentation doesn't involve nearly as many dizzying rotations. When attempting to convey an idea, animations should be subtle, or the idea gets lost in the pretty effects.
It's lovely! Well done.<p>I really strongly suggest you find a use for it that is not presentation. When I'm presenting I want people to be listening to what I'm saying, or getting information of the slide (or from their handouts); I don't want them thinking "Hey, that's a nice transition, I can't do that in powerpoint, I wonder what they used; wait, did he just say 27% up or 27% late? Wow, what was that group for?" etc.<p>I liked the way it told me after a few seconds that I needed to use arrows or the space bar. And it kept the back-button functionality.
I opened up the source code and it was like a walkthrough. I like this a lot. I'll be spending some time on this tomrrow.<p>All the references to Yoda made me dig up this classic.

Very nice. Although at first, I didn't realize the slideshow kept going after the 3rd slide. It looked like it ended. It was only out of curiosity that I used the right arrow key and saw the whole sliding effect. Maybe make a note of that on the 3rd slide.
Having played around with reveal.js (<a href="http://lab.hakim.se/reveal-js/" rel="nofollow">http://lab.hakim.se/reveal-js/</a>) just last week. This is even more interesting!
Slidery is a Java based project which allows to write presentations in markdown and generate slides in Impress.js and a bunch of other javascript presentation frameworks.<p><a href="https://github.com/aestasit/slidery" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/aestasit/slidery</a><p>(the guy who created it is my business partner)
Seems a lot of people (based on the comments) have written presentation generators :) Here's my contribution [1]. I created it to whip up quick slideshows for my club presentations on campus.<p>[1]: <a href="http://prezjordan.github.com/cleaver" rel="nofollow">http://prezjordan.github.com/cleaver</a>
I love the concept of impress.js and started making a presentation for the agency I work for: <a href="http://kitchdigital.com/about/" rel="nofollow">http://kitchdigital.com/about/</a><p>Warning, there is a lot of zooming around and you might feel sick.
I started this little project several months ago based on impress.js<p>should still work in chrome/safari.<p><a href="http://stepludesigner.azurewebsites.net/designer" rel="nofollow">http://stepludesigner.azurewebsites.net/designer</a>
I used it to give a talk at Droidcon hacknight. Here's a <dark> video :) <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYiSuxPpJTg" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYiSuxPpJTg</a>
this is great Bartaz - congratulations.<p>Although I'd stress not too use too many effects.<p>I read this recently...<p><a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/interactive/2012/dec/28/2012-in-review-interactive-guide" rel="nofollow">http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/interactive/2012/dec/28/2012-in...</a><p>and it's just way too disorienting.<p>Stay subtle :)
jmpress.js is an interesting fork of this with more features and some kind of deeper jquery integration. Worth a look: <a href="http://jmpressjs.github.com/jmpress.js/#/home" rel="nofollow">http://jmpressjs.github.com/jmpress.js/#/home</a>
