Interactive Elements

You can embed interactive views into your slides using IDOM, by adding an HTML element into your markup with an attribute of the form data-idom="your_script.py" where your_script.py should be placed in the same directory that slidedown was invoked and must contains a function Main() that returns an IDOM element or a VDOM dict.

For example, the following markup:

# Say Hello IDOM

<span data-idom="hello.py">

and a script hello.py dwith the following content:

import idom


@idom.element
def Main():
    hi_count, set_hi_count = idom.hooks.use_state(1)
    plural = 's' if hi_count > 1 else ''
    return idom.html.button(
        {"onClick": lambda event: set_hi_count(hi_count + 1)},
        f"IDOM said hi {hi_count} time{plural}",
    )

Should produce the following output:

Say Hello IDOM

IDOM said hi 1 time

Clicking the button should increment the count (it won't here of course).
