## Overview
This was a presentation I gave twice at edX in 2017 on understanding some
key points in web browser automation. A PDF of the slides is present in the
root directory, read on if you're interested in the technical details of how
the presentation was made.
## Installation and slide generation
To generate the HTML slides as they were presented:
* `git clone https://github.com/jmbowman/browser-automation-presentation.git`
* Install [virtualenv](https://virtualenv.pypa.io/en/stable/), if you haven't
already done so
* Create and activate a virtualenv (for example, `virtualenv env` followed by
`. env/bin/activate`)
* `pip install -r requirements.txt`
* `make html`
## Implementation notes
The presentation was written as a single reStructuredText file (`index.rst`).
This was converted to a [reveal.js](https://github.com/hakimel/reveal.js/)
HTML presentation via [Sphinx](http://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/stable/) using the
[sphinxjp.themes.revealjs](https://github.com/tell-k/sphinxjp.themes.revealjs)
extension. The flowcharts in the presentation were defined inline using the
[sphinxcontrib-blockdiag](http://blockdiag.com/en/blockdiag/sphinxcontrib.html)
extension.
The PDF was saved from the HTML presentation via Chrome using the reveal.js
[print stylesheet](https://github.com/hakimel/reveal.js#pdf-export).
