Beautiful CSS 3D Slideshow (hakim.se)

I really, really like this. I am getting ready to do a small presentation next week and was looking for a way to pull it off in a open source kind of way. Keynote works very well but it costs $$$ and PowerPoint is not even in the room.

The one thing I would like to have is a couple of charts/graphs. Does anyone have any tips on a JavaScript charting/graphing engine that might fit in with reveal.js? I realize that I could just use some PNGs or something but that doesn't seem like very much fun.


Take a look at Highcharts - http://www.highcharts.com/

Flexible, beautiful, and interactive. Free for non-commercial use.


I would say d3 would fit snugly with reveal.js: http://mbostock.github.com/d3/


Keynote is $20 on the app store. How much is your time worth?


Maybe you should generate the charts with a server script, something like

<img src="chart.php?bar1=20%&bar2=80%&label1=woman&label2=men" />

A php library to do so: http://pchart.sourceforge.net/


CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets so what does a generic style pattern concept have to do with 3D and animated slideshows?


I'll admit the demo is beautiful, but surely there's a way to accomplish this without history pollution.


Where is this 3D? Internal linking doesn't add a dimension..


There's a 3D rotation transition between slides and on the anchors – requires Chrome/Safari/Mobile Safari/FF10 though so perhaps you're not seeing them.

update: ff8 = ff10


ff9 doesnt work for me. chrome does. you mentioned ff8?


My bad, they added support in FF10 and I was testing in FF11. http://caniuse.com/#search=css3%203d%20transforms

No, but a browser supporting 3D-transformations, however.
