a template for generating slide templates with identifier
I am yet again making a new set of slides with nimislides (public soon) and as usual I try to innovate a bit my workflow.
For this feature request it is harder to make a title for this feature (and even harder to understand the title) than an example:
import nimib, nimislides
template slide(ident: untyped, body: untyped) =
template `slide ident` =
slide:
body
# I use this idiom currently
template slideTitleAlt =
slide:
nbText: "## My title slide"
# and this is sugar for this idiom
slide(Title):
nbText: "## My title slide (but using a template)"
when isMainModule:
nbInit(theme = revealTheme)
setSlidesTheme(Serif)
# having slides called here makes it easier to add them and remove them while creating a presentation
slideTitle
slideTitleAlt
nbSave
the proposal is to introduce the template slide(ident: untyped, body: untyped)
as above to allow the isMainModule workflow with reduced indentation. Ah in the example above I did not use it but I would probably export the template by default (since it can be used from different sets of slides).
