Code Highlighting

For continuous highlighting, use from-to (6-8).

For discontinuous highlighting, use line1, line2, ... (1, 4).

To highlight lines in a progressive manner, use range1|range2 (|6-8|1,4|).

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

r = np.arange(0, 2, 0.01)
theta = 2 * np.pi * r
fig, ax = plt.subplots(subplot_kw={'projection': 'polar'})
ax.plot(theta, r)
ax.set_rticks([0.5, 1, 1.5, 2])
ax.grid(True)
plt.show()

Enable more revealjs features

The theme is built ontop of Quarto’s revealjs implementation. So, any features of available are also usable within the theme. For example, if we wanted to incorporate the chalkboard feature. We would use:

format:
  illinois-revealjs: 
    chalkboard: true
