Slide alignment demo
How vertical alignment works — auto by default, forced with a {top}/{center}/{bottom} marker.
Auto-centered
One short block and no marker, so this slide is centered automatically.

Auto top-aligned
This slide has prose and two blocks, so it auto top-aligns — dense content reads better flowing from the top than floating in the middle.
Note
No marker here either — alignment is chosen by how heavy the slide is.
| Weight | Alignment | |
|---|---|---|
| Light (≤1 block | little prose) | Centered |
| Heavy (2+ blocks or lots of prose) | Top |
Forced top
Same light content as the first slide, but {top} in the heading forces it to the
top regardless of weight.

Marker used
Forced centered
Tip
{center} pins a slide to the middle even if it's heavy.
Forced bottom
Success
{bottom} drops the content to the bottom of the slide.
