xaringanthemer

Give your xaringan slides some style with xaringanthemer within your slides.Rmd file without (much) CSS.

Installation

xaringanthemer currently lives on GitHub.

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("gadenbuie/xaringanthemer")

Usage

First, add css: xaringan-themer.css to your xaringan slides YAML header under xaringan::moonreader:.

output:
  xaringan::moon_reader:
    lib_dir: libs
    css: xaringan-themer.css

Then, in a hidden chunk just after the knitr setup chunk, load xaringanthemer and try one of the theme functions.

```{r xaringan-themer, include = FALSE}
library(xaringanthemer)
mono_light(
  base_color = "#1c5253",
  header_font_google = google_font("Josefin Sans"),
  text_font_google   = google_font("Montserrat", "300", "300i"),
  code_font_google   = google_font("Droid Mono")
)
```

xaringanthemer is Tab friendly – use autocomplete to explore the template variables that you can adjust in each of the themes!

You can also skip the above and just create a Ninja Themed Presentation from the New R Markdown Document menu in RStudio.
