Gallery of images/quizzes

[maxim-belkin]

It is sometimes desirable to show workshop participants a single image or quiz. A good example is the image in the introduction to Git. While it is totally possible to show the webpage with the image, it would be great to have a page with all images where instructors could simply click to show an image. Alternatively, there could be a page where instructors could click-through the images. Something like below.

                       ---------------
                       |             |
(Prev) <=              |    image    |           => (Next)
                       |             |
                       ---------------

Every lesson has _extras/figures.md, which produces pages like http://swcarpentry.github.io/lesson-example/figures/ with all of the figures on a single page.

That's right. What I suggest is slightly different.

Option 1. thumbnails with click-to-enlarge action Option 2. a page with images/quizzes where you have to click Next/Previous to get to the next/previous image. One image/quiz at a time.

@k8hertweck would you like to bring this one to the maintainers?

[k8hertweck]

Sure thing, adding this to the list to discuss. @rgaiacs

adding this to the list to discuss.

The list of discussion is at https://github.com/swcarpentry/styles/milestone/1.

I'm slightly late to the game... I had a prototype doing exactly this. I would need to find it back and to make it work again, but there are been quite some changes in the style since then.

[maxim-belkin]

it's never too late!

I could find my prototype and it can be tested there (it also shows section titles): http://dl.heeere.com/all-in-one-old/git-novice/all-in-one-as-slides.html

This is very close to what I want (how do I enable it on github?). Ideally, there would be this solution for quizes and for images.
