Markdown and slide syntax

Add and separate slides

Use a standalone separator to split Markdown into multiple slides.

Content reviewed:
Actual interfaceSeparate slides
1 / 2
Before adding a separator, the heading and body appear on one slide.
A standalone `---` starts the next slide.

Separate with a standalone ---

Place --- on its own line with a line break before and after it. The following content begins a new slide. A --- inside fenced code is not treated as a separator.

Keep one message per slide

Split the content before it exceeds the slide frame. Separating a conclusion from its evidence is usually more readable than shrinking all text.

Know what is not a separator

A --- inside a sentence, inline code, or fenced code block does not separate slides. To create a new slide, close the code fence and place --- alone between blank lines.
