Quarto 🤝 Reveal.js

So, after making a promise some time ago on twitter ¹, and having many questions following my talk on Parallel Training Techniques last week, I’m finally getting around to writing this up.

The slides are written using Quarto, a flavor of Markdown, and uses the built-in Quarto + Reveal.js functionality.

For this post, I’ll focus on the slides I presented at last years Lattice 2023, shown below:

🏃‍♂️ Follow Along…

Once you’ve Installed Quarto, you can build these slides yourself by:

git clone saforem2/lattice23
cd lattice23 && quarto preview

This will create a docs/ directory with the following structure:

📂 docs/
├── 📂 assets/
├── 📂 css/
├── 📄 index.html
├── 📄 lattice23.md
├── 📄 search.json
└── 📂 site_libs/

Once you’ve created this, and the docs/index.html file looks how you want, you can add the docs/ directory to your GitHub repo:

$ git add docs
$ git commit -m 'Create site'
$ git push

Once you’ve enabled the GitHub page, the site will be automatically built and updated alongside the repo.

Getting Started

Whenever I give a talk, my workflow is typically:

Create new GitHub repo for it

Hunt down the GitHub repo from my last talk and²:

$ cp -r old_talk/{_quarto.yml,index.qmd,references.bib,css/*} new_talk/

Honestly, other than that, 90% of the work is done automatically by Quarto. The remaining 10% consists of figuring out why my css is broken (see CSS).

The best place to start for learning to make slides with Quarto and Reveal.js is the official documentation:

Quarto / Presentations / Revealjs:

The slides are written in ~~markdown~~ Quarto (.qmd)³, a pandoc-compliant based markup language.

For a single slide deck, the content will be placed in index.qmd and our directory structure will look something like:

📂 lattice23/
├── 📂 assets/            # for images, etc.
│   └── 🖼️ thumbnail.png  # can be used as social preview image
├── 📂 css/
│   ├── 📄 callouts.css
│   ├── 📄 dark.scss
│   └── 📄 default.css
├── 🛠️ _quarto.yml        # Configuration goes here
├── 📄 index.qmd          # Quarto document containing slides content
└── 📜 references.bib     # BibTex references

Equations are rendered using $ delimiters for inline math and $$ for display math⁴.
We can use Divs and Spans from Pandoc.
- <span>’s: are created by wrapping text in square brackets, and will be treated as a <span> with attributes if it is followed immediately by attributes, e.g.:
  - Example: [This is *some text*]{.class key="val"}
  - idk what I’m doing really, so I mostly find myself doing things like [blue text]{style="color:#1E88E5;"} which produces blue text.
- <div>’s: are created by wrapping text with a line consisting of at least three colons :::.
  - Example:
    ::: {#special .sidebar} Here is a paragraph. And another. :::
  - We can use either attributes in curly braces or a single unbraced word, which will be treated as a class name.

🎁 Install Extensions

Find the full list of available extensions at Quarto Extensions

To install various icon sets used in the example slides, we can install the following extensions:

$ quarto install extension mcanouil/quarto-iconify      # https://icones.js.org/ [<-- Contains rest of icon sets ??]
$ quarto install extension shafayetShafee/bsicons       # bootstrap icons
$ quarto install extension schochastics/academicicons   # OrcID, Google Scholar, ...
$ quarto install extension quarto-ext/fontawesome       # Font Awesome icons

note that these aren’t necessary for functionality, but provide additional icons that I like to use 🤷🏻‍♂️

Metadata

The first section of our index.qmd contains the YAML metadata for the Quarto document.

Explicitly, we see this consists of:

Title Slide

Starting with the title slide⁵:

The full slide contents are included below:

:::

For the background, I made a simple animation saforem2/grid-worms-animation that is hosted on GitHub pages as a simple html website
This static GitHub page is then used as an IFrame Background natively in Quarto with Reveal.js

This is as simple as:

# {.title-slide .centeredslide background-iframe="https://saforem2.github.io/grid-worms-animation/" loading="lazy"}

Single-Column Slides

Other than the title slide, the remainder of the slides are all relatively straightforward to construct.

For single-column slides, constructing the content is as simple as writing it in Markdown:

# Overview

1. [Background: `{MCMC,HMC}`](#markov-chain-monte-carlo-mcmc)
    - [Leapfrog Integrator](#leapfrog-integrator-hmc)
    - [Issues with HMC](#sec-issues-with-hmc)
    - [Can we do better?](#sec-can-we-do-better)

2. [L2HMC: Generalizing MD](#sec-l2hmc)
    - [4D $SU(3)$ Model](#sec-su3)
    - [Results](#sec-results)
3. [References](#sec-references)
4. [Extras](#sec-extras)

Centered Slides

We can center all the text on a slide by adding the {.centeredslide} class to the slide header, e.g.

---
format:
  revealjs:
    theme: [style.scss]
---

# Title {.centeredslide}

.centeredslide {
  text-align: center;
}

Multi-Column Slides

Side-by-side content (either text or images)

This slide is horizontally centered⁶ and the content consists of two rows split as follows:

A	B
C	C

Table 1: Slide layout. First row split into two columns, second row spans full width.

In panel A, we have a ::: {.callout-note} block followed by a single list element containing a LaTeX equation.
In panel B we have a standard markdown image
```
![](./assets/mcmc.png)
```
In panel C we have normal text + math with LaTeX⁷ syntax.

Note that we additionally have a ::: footer element included at the bottom of the slide.

The code used to generate the slide above is included below:

Expand forquarto

# Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) {.centeredslide}

:::: {.columns}

::: {.column width="50%"}

::: {.callout-note title="Goal" style="text-align:left;!important"}
Generate **independent** samples $\{x_{i}\}$, such that[^notation]
$$\{x_{i}\} \sim p(x) \propto e^{-S(x)}$$
where $S(x)$ is the _action_ (or potential energy)
:::

- Want to calculate observables $\mathcal{O}$:  
  $\left\langle \mathcal{O}\right\rangle \propto \int \left[\mathcal{D}x\right]\hspace{4pt} {\mathcal{O}(x)\, p(x)}$

:::

::: {.column width="49%"}
![](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/saforem2/deep-fridays/main/assets/normal_distribution.dark.svg)
:::

::::

If these were [independent]{.style="color:#00CCFF;"}, we could approximate:
$\left\langle\mathcal{O}\right\rangle \simeq \frac{1}{N}\sum^{N}_{n=1}\mathcal{O}(x_{n})$
$$\sigma_{\mathcal{O}}^{2} = \frac{1}{N}\mathrm{Var}{\left[\mathcal{O} (x) \right]}\Longrightarrow
\sigma_{\mathcal{O}} \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{N}}$$

[^notation]: Here, $\sim$ means "is distributed according to"

💅 CSS

My web developer friend laughs at me, but when something is broken / doesn’t look right / I want it to look different, I:

Pull up Chrome Tools ( ⌘ + ⌥ + I )
Inspect element of interest ( ⌘ + ⇧ + C )
Make changes to the CSS
Save the new rule to my .scss file 🤷🏻‍♂️

I’m guessing this might be obvious to some people, but it took me a while to figure out how things worked so maybe its helpful for others.
