Create Presentation

Create a new Quarto revealjs slide deck in slides/ with the project's style guide applied.

Arguments

• $ARGUMENTS — the presentation title and optional subtitle (e.g., "Regional Disparities in GDP" or "Job Market Talk: Regional Disparities")

Steps

1. Parse the title (and subtitle, if separated by a colon) from the arguments.

1. Check slides/ for existing files to avoid name collisions. Generate a filename using the naming convention from slides/README.md (e.g., analysis-results.qmd or 01-seminar-talk.qmd).

1. Create the .qmd file in slides/ with this YAML front matter (from the style guide in slides/README.md):

```yaml

title: "<title>" subtitle: "<subtitle if provided>" author: "<from index.qmd author field, or [FILL: Author name]>" date: today format: revealjs: theme: simple slide-number: true css: | .reveal h1, .reveal h2, .reveal h3 { color: #2874A6; } .reveal strong { color: #229954; }

```

1. Pre-populate the body with a standard academic talk structure:
