#' Convert to a reveal.js presentation
#'
#' Format for converting from R Markdown to a reveal.js presentation.
#'
#' @inheritParams rmarkdown::beamer_presentation
#' @inheritParams rmarkdown::pdf_document
#' @inheritParams rmarkdown::html_document
#'
#' @param center \code{TRUE} to vertically center content on slides
#' @param slide_level Level of heading to denote individual slides. If
#'   \code{slide_level} is 2 (the default), a two-dimensional layout will be
#'   produced, with level 1 headers building horizontally and level 2 headers
#'   building vertically. It is not recommended that you use deeper nesting of
#'   section levels with reveal.js.
#' @param theme Visual theme ("simple", "sky", "beige", "serif", "solarized",
#'   "blood", "moon", "night", "black", "league" or "white").
#' @param transition Slide transition ("default", "none", "fade", "slide",
#'   "convex", "concave" or "zoom")
#' @param background_transition Slide background-transition ("default", "none",
#'   "fade", "slide", "convex", "concave" or "zoom")
#' @param reveal_options Additional options to specify for reveal.js (see
#'   \href{https://revealjs.com/config/}{https://revealjs.com/config/}
#'    for details).
#' @param reveal_plugins Reveal plugins to include. Available plugins include
#'   "notes", "search", "zoom", "chalkboard", and "menu". Note that
#'   \code{self_contained} must be set to \code{FALSE} in order to use Reveal
#'   plugins.
#' @param template Pandoc template to use for rendering. Pass "default" to use
#'   the rmarkdown package default template; pass \code{NULL} to use pandoc's
#'   built-in template; pass a path to use a custom template that you've
#'   created. Note that if you don't use the "default" template then some
#'   features of \code{revealjs_presentation} won't be available (see the
#'   Templates section below for more details).
#' @param extra_dependencies Additional function arguments to pass to the base R
#'   Markdown HTML output formatter [rmarkdown::html_document_base()].
#' @param ... Ignored
#'
#' @return R Markdown output format to pass to \code{\link{render}}
#'
#' @details
#'
#' In reveal.js presentations you can use level 1 or level 2 headers for slides.
#' If you use a mix of level 1 and level 2 headers then a two-dimensional layout
#' will be produced, with level 1 headers building horizontally and level 2
#' headers building vertically.
