It's a little hidden, but from the notebook you change the “Cell Toolbar”
option at the top to “Slideshow”, then you can define slides, etc. To view
the slideshow run "ipython nbconvert --post serve --to=slides
SomeNotebook.ipynb".
I've a similar experience as Stefan with this, though. It works alright if
your slides are static and simple, but it's kind of glitchy overall.
