Creating slideshow presentations using RISE.
Creating a project in Jupyter notebook is good, but what about to present your project to other people? How can you create a presentation of your idea, concept or project, written in the Jupyter notebook?
One of the relatively simple approaches how to it — using RISE.

RISE is the presentation module for Jupyter notebook, which uses Reveal.js under the hood. There’s a good presentation here from the author Damian Avila.
How to install it?
You can install it using conda:

Basic usage.
Pretty easy. You need to activate Slideshow Cell Toolbar:
Go to View/Cell Toolbar and click on Slideshow.

There’s a few types of slides:
Slide — speaks for itself, from this cell new slide will be started.
Subslide — Type of slide which will appears under the current slide
Fragment — Fragment of the slide if you want that not all information appears immediately on the slide, you should divide your slide into fragments.
Skip — skip this cell, it won’t be appear on the slide.
Notes — This cell works as a notes.
“ — ” — Inherit behavior from the cell above.
After you will put all the types on your cells you can take a look how it works.
