Slide-drive is a HTML5 slideshow player that enables audio or video to control a Deck.js slideshow. The author needs nothing more than a basic understanding of HTML and CSS to make a fully featured slideshow.

(This currently clones hundreds of megs of unnecessary or redundant data.)

$ git clone https://github.com/dseif/slide-drive.git slide-drive
$ cd slide-drive
$ git submodule update --init --recursive

$ git pull origin master
$ git submodule update --init --recursive

Butter requires Node.js v0.6 or higher. You may use your system's copy, but I prefer to install an isolated copy using the Python tool nodeenv. This takes longer to install but is more difficult to break.

$ pip install nodeenv
# OR
$ easy_install nodeenv

$ python -m nodeenv --node=0.7.9 --npm=1.1.23 nodeenv

$ nodeenv/bin/npm install external/butter/
$ nodeenv/bin/npm install shelljs express stylus mongoose express-browserid

Some basic functionality doesn't require MongoDB, but it is required to save or share pages. You're on your own for this.

$ NODE_PATH=external_configs/cornfield nodeenv/bin/node external/butter/cornfield/app
