RStudio allows this pretty easily, but I really like my prose/code in Orgmode format and working within Emacs. Plus, it allows the obvious benefit of exporting to Beamer or Slidify at will (perhaps with some tweaks). I planned to look at the existing non-Beamer libraries for reference, but thought it wouldn't hurt to inquire about potential pitfalls based in how Slidify works: - initializes a git repo with some css/other folders - creates an index.Rmd file (markdown, which one edits to create presentation) - spits out an index.html file when you run `slidify("index.Rmd")` I think the folders in the presentation directory could be initialized and then Org syntax could be converted to R markdown, followed by running the slidify command to compile, but am not sure. I'm coming from ~zero elisp experience but think this would be a neat hobby project if I could pull it off.

Greetings,


I use R= quite a bit, and ran into a new exporter sometime last year called Slidify= :

Would anyone be able to suggest a good starting place f= or creating a possible backend exporter for this? RStudio allows this prett= y easily, but I really like my prose/code in Orgmode format and working wit= hin Emacs. Plus, it allows the obvious benefit of exporting to Beamer or Sl= idify at will (perhaps with some tweaks).

I planned to look at the existing non-Beamer libraries = for reference, but thought it wouldn't hurt to inquire about potential = pitfalls based in how Slidify works:
- initializes a git repo wit= h some css/other folders
- creates an index.Rmd file (markdown, which one edits to create prese= ntation)
- spits out an index.html file when you run `slidify(&qu= ot;index.Rmd")`

I think the folders in the pr= esentation directory could be initialized and then Org syntax could be conv= erted to R markdown, followed by running the slidify command to compile, bu= t am not sure.

I'm coming from ~zero elisp experience but think th= is would be a neat hobby project if I could pull it off.


Thanks for any input,
John
