Links

Links let you point your audience somewhere — a website, a paper, or another slide in your own deck. Tachyonn has two kinds: external links (to a URL) and internal links (to a slide in the same presentation).

External links

Use the & short-function, with the URL first and an optional label after a comma:

&[url, label]

If you give a label, that's the text the audience sees. If you leave it out, the URL itself is shown.

With a label:

Just the URL:

Source: &[https://www.tachyonn.org]

Internal links

To link to another slide in your deck, use :[id], where id is a label you defined on a slide with ::id:

## Conclusions ::conclusions

Jump ahead to our :[conclusions].

As with external links, you can add custom text after a comma:

See the :[conclusions, final takeaways] for a summary.

Internal links are covered in more depth on the References page.

A quick way to remember the symbols

& points outward to the web. : points inward to your own slides. Both take their parameters in [ ], label optional.
