Why you should listen to me!
Been through 3 start ups, one was my own. Been through New Zealands first business accelerator "Lightning Lab" for 3 months learning the skills to know if a product is viable or not and how to ...
Fail Fast!
Hey I already have a product!
Build it and they will come.
Features Features Features.
Hey our customers told us they want this.
Developing in the dark (or building large software then releasing it)
Why this doesn't work
Assumptions are always wrong!
A lot more competition
People don't know what they want
Successful software companies are always learning!
People are constantly changing and so should your product
Discovery through validation
A/B testing features
adding a feature? remove one!
So? How do I validate/know if my product will sell?
There are no facts inside your building, so get outside! - Steve Blank
Who is your customer segment?
How many customers can you potentially reach?
Beta's - let your customers iron out your bugs
short feedback loops - intercom.io
Get users on your platform as soon as possible
Finding the pain point!!
Summary
Don't start with the product, start with the problem and validate before you build! Some start ups sold a product that didn't exist to prove they had a market.
* Theme demos are loaded after the presentation which leads to flicker. In production you should load your theme in the <head> using a <link>.
Global State
Set data-state="something" on a slide and "something"
will be added as a class to the document element when the slide is open. This lets you
apply broader style changes, like switching the background.
Custom Events
Additionally custom events can be triggered on a per slide basis by binding to the data-state name.
Reveal.addEventListener( 'customevent', function() {console.log( '"customevent" has fired' );
} );
Slide Backgrounds
Set data-background="#007777" on a slide to change the full page background to the given color. All CSS color formats are supported.
Pass reveal.js the backgroundTransition: 'slide' config argument to make backgrounds slide rather than fade.
Background Transition Override
You can override background transitions per slide by using data-background-transition="slide".
Clever Quotes
These guys come in two forms, inline:
“The nice thing about standards is that there are so many to choose from” and block:
“For years there has been a theory that millions of monkeys typing at random on millions of typewriters would
reproduce the entire works of Shakespeare. The Internet has proven this theory to be untrue.”
Pretty Code
functionlinkify( selector ) {if( supports3DTransforms ) {
var nodes = document.querySelectorAll( selector );
for( var i = 0, len = nodes.length; i < len; i++ ) {
var node = nodes[i];
if( !node.className ) {
node.className += ' roll';
}
}
}
}
You can link between slides internally,
like this.

Take a Moment
Press b or period on your keyboard to enter the 'paused' mode. This mode is helpful when you want to take distracting slides off the screen
during a presentation.
