Exporting SlideShows in Jupyter Notebook
Once you are done with the creation and customization of the slides, you can export your slideshow from the Jupyter Notebook to your local machine. The slides can be exported in different formats such as HTML, PDF, LaTex, Reveal JS, Markdown (md), ReStructured Text (rst) and executable script. After exporting the file, save it in the same folder as that of where your Jupyter Notebook is installed. Finally, you will be able to easily present your slideshow from your local system to the outside world.
You can do so with the help of nbconvert tool. The nbconvert tool, is a Jupyter Notebook tool that converts notebooks to various other formats via Jinja templates. In order to used the nbconvert tool, you need to follow its basic command.
From the Command Line, use nbconvert to convert a Jupyter Notebook (input) to a different format (output). The basic command structure is given below:
jupyter nbconvert --to <output format> <input notebook>
where <output format> is the desired format in which the notebook is converted and <input notebook> is the filename of your own Jupyter Notebook which you want to convert.
For example: CONVERT JUPYTERNOTEBOOK SLIDESHOW TO HTML
jupyter nbconvert --to html slideshow.ipynb
This command creates an HTML file named as slideshow.ipynb.
Creating Interactive Slideshows in Jupyter Notebooks
We all have been very well acquainted with the creation of slideshows by using Microsoft PowerPoint for our schools, colleges, or offices in our day-to-day lives. But, have we ever wondered how would it be to create a slideshow through the Jupyter Notebook? The advantages of creating slideshows with Python and Jupyter are its version control capability, dynamicity in the slideshows, easy sharing of codes with others in the groups, and a single presentation document, but the only con with this is that it doesnât have many themes to apply in the slides, due to which it may look sort of a little plain.
In this article, we will walk through the different methods used for creating interactive slideshows in Jupyter Notebook like through RISE, with Jupyterâs built-in slideshow feature, Jupyter widgets, and ipywidgets and voila and voila-reveal. Also, we will read about the importance of creating interactive slideshows, how to customize our slides in the slideshows, and the processes involved in exporting the slideshow.
Now, coming to the basic query to ask everyone, and which every individual has in their mind is
Why Interactive SlideShow?
Some of the reasons why interactive slideshows are appreciated are mentioned below:
1. It easily helps in capturing audiencesâ attention because of its interactive clickable elements, colours, images, videos, etc. making the presentation more memorable.
2. Users can delve further into data visualizations, charts, and graphs in interactive slideshows for data-driven presentations. To acquire deeper insights, they might filter data or zoom in on particular data points.
3. Interactive slideshows possess features like surveys and quizzes to collect feedback and gauge audience comprehension in real-time, which can be useful for training or instructional purposes.
4. Presenters can adapt their information to their audienceâs demands by using interactive slideshows. Users can take their own route through the content by concentrating on the subjects that are most interesting or important to them, creating a more individualized experience.
