HTML PPT Studio — author professional static HTML presentations in many styles, layouts, and animations, all driven by templates. Use when the user asks for a presentation, PPT, slides, keynote, deck, slideshow, "幻灯片", "演讲稿", "做一份 PPT", "做一份 slides", a reveal-style HTML deck, a 小红书 图文, or any kind of multi-slide pitch/report/sharing document that should look tasteful and be usable with keyboard navigation. Triggers include keywords like "presentation", "ppt", "slides", "deck", "keynote", "reveal", "slideshow", "幻灯片", "演讲稿", "分享稿", "小红书图文", "talk slides", "pitch deck", "tech sharing", "technical presentation".

html-ppt — HTML PPT Studio

Author professional HTML presentations as static files. One theme file = one look. One layout file = one page type. One animation class = one entry effect. All pages share a token-based design system in assets/base.css.

One command, no build. Pure static HTML/CSS/JS with only CDN webfonts.

What the skill gives you

• 36 themes (assets/themes/*.css) — minimal-white, editorial-serif, soft-pastel, sharp-mono, arctic-cool, sunset-warm, catppuccin-latte/mocha, dracula, tokyo-night, nord, solarized-light, gruvbox-dark, rose-pine, neo-brutalism, glassmorphism, bauhaus, swiss-grid, terminal-green, xiaohongshu-white, rainbow-gradient, aurora, blueprint, memphis-pop, cyberpunk-neon, y2k-chrome, retro-tv, japanese-minimal, vaporwave, midcentury, corporate-clean, academic-paper, news-broadcast, pitch-deck-vc, magazine-bold, engineering-whiteprint
• 15 full-deck templates (templates/full-decks/<name>/) — complete multi-slide decks with scoped .tpl-<name> CSS. 8 extracted from real-world decks (xhs-white-editorial, graphify-dark-graph, knowledge-arch-blueprint, hermes-cyber-terminal, obsidian-claude-gradient, testing-safety-alert, xhs-pastel-card, dir-key-nav-minimal), 7 scenario scaffolds (pitch-deck, product-launch, tech-sharing, weekly-report, xhs-post 3:4, course-module, presenter-mode-reveal — 演讲者模式专用)
• 31 layouts (templates/single-page/*.html) with realistic demo data
• 27 CSS animations (assets/animations/animations.css) via data-anim
• 20 canvas FX animations (assets/animations/fx/*.js) via data-fx — particle-burst, confetti-cannon, firework, starfield, matrix-rain, knowledge-graph (force-directed), neural-net (pulses), constellation, orbit-ring, galaxy-swirl, word-cascade, letter-explode, chain-react, magnetic-field, data-stream, gradient-blob, sparkle-trail, shockwave, typewriter-multi, counter-explosion
• Keyboard runtime (assets/runtime.js) — arrows, T (theme), A (anim), F/O, S (presenter mode: magnetic-card popup with CURRENT / NEXT / SCRIPT / TIMER cards), N (notes drawer), R (reset timer in presenter)
• FX runtime (assets/animations/fx-runtime.js) — auto-inits [data-fx] on slide enter, cleans up on leave
• Showcase decks for themes / layouts / animations / full-decks gallery
• Headless Chrome render script for PNG export

When to use

Use when the user asks for any kind of slide-based output or wants to turn text/notes into a presentable deck. Prefer this over building from scratch.

🎤 Presenter Mode (演讲者模式 + 逐字稿)

If the user mentions any of: 演讲 / 分享 / 讲稿 / 逐字稿 / speaker notes / presenter view / 演讲者视图 / 提词器, or says things like "我要去给团队讲 xxx", "要做一场技术分享", "怕讲不流畅", "想要一份带逐字稿的 PPT" — use the presenter-mode-reveal full-deck template and write 150–300 words of 逐字稿 in each slide's <aside class="notes">.

See references/presenter-mode.md for the full authoring guide including the 3 rules of speaker script writing:

1. 不是讲稿，是提示信号 — 加粗核心词 + 过渡句独立成段
2. 每页 150–300 字 — 2–3 分钟/页的节奏
3. 用口语，不用书面语 — "因此"→"所以"，"该方案"→"这个方案"

All full-deck templates support the S key presenter mode (it's built into runtime.js). S opens a new popup window with 4 magnetic cards:

• 🔵 CURRENT — pixel-perfect iframe preview of the current slide
• 🟣 NEXT — pixel-perfect iframe preview of the next slide
• 🟠 SPEAKER SCRIPT — large-font 逐字稿 (scrollable)
• 🟢 TIMER — elapsed time + slide counter + prev/next/reset buttons

Each card is draggable by its header and resizable by the bottom-right corner handle. Card positions/sizes persist to localStorage per deck. A "Reset layout" button restores the default arrangement.

Why the previews are pixel-perfect: each preview is an <iframe> that loads the actual deck HTML with a ?preview=N query param; runtime.js detects this and renders only slide N with no chrome. So the preview uses the same CSS, theme, fonts, and viewport as the audience view — colors and layout are guaranteed identical.

Smooth navigation: on slide change, the presenter window sends postMessage({type:'preview-goto', idx:N}) to each iframe. The iframe just toggles .is-active between slides — no reload, no flicker. The two windows also stay in sync via BroadcastChannel.

Only presenter-mode-reveal is designed from the ground up around the feature with proper example 逐字稿 on every slide.

Keyboard in presenter window: ← → navigate (syncs audience) · R reset timer · Esc close popup. Keyboard in audience window: S open presenter · T cycle theme · ← → navigate (syncs presenter) · F fullscreen · O overview.

House default style: academic-report (settled 2026-07-21)

Unless the user asks for something else, start every new deck from this style — it was converged over many review rounds on the REACH-ADHD NIH program-officer briefing (reference deck: REACH-SPACE/collaborations/Event-JHU-ADHD-NIH-Team/po-update-deck/html-ppt/).

Rule	Value
Background	pure white #ffffff — page AND cards
Font	Times New Roman on every element (code spans too)
Type scale	normal-PPT sizes: titles ~33pt, body ~15-18pt; trim content rather than shrink type
Chrome	NO kicker above titles · NO rule under titles · NO page index
Body text	bullets, ONE SENTENCE PER LINE (.blt list)
Layout	slides fill the page (flex column, space-between)
Palette	ink/grays + navy accent #1f5aa8 + amber warn #b45309 only
Placeholders	dashed amber .todo pill — unfilled content is visible, never presentable by accident
Corners	square-ish (2px radius), no shadows

Wire-up in a deck's <head> (after base.css):

<link rel="stylesheet" id="theme-link" href="../assets/themes/academic-report.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="../assets/academic-report-extras.css">

themes/academic-report.css = tokens; academic-report-extras.css = the component conventions (.blt bullets, .todo pill, kicker-off, page-fill, table styles). For per-slide SVG / PPTX / PDF export of such a deck, use the sibling html-to-svg skill — same contract, plus native-shapes pptx.

Before you author anything — ALWAYS ask or recommend

Do not start writing slides until you understand three things. Either ask the user directly, or — if they already handed you rich content — propose a tasteful default and confirm.

1. Content & audience. What's the deck about, how many slides, who's watching (engineers / execs / 小红书读者 / 学生 / VC)?
2. Style / theme. DEFAULT to academic-report (house style above) unless the user signals otherwise; for other tones recommend 2-3 candidates:
   • Business / investor pitch → pitch-deck-vc, corporate-clean, swiss-grid
   • Tech sharing / engineering → tokyo-night, dracula, catppuccin-mocha, terminal-green, blueprint
   • 小红书图文 → xiaohongshu-white, soft-pastel, rainbow-gradient, magazine-bold
   • Academic / report → academic-paper, editorial-serif, minimal-white
   • Edgy / cyber / launch → cyberpunk-neon, vaporwave, y2k-chrome, neo-brutalism
3. Starting point. One of the 14 full-deck templates, or scratch? Point to the closest templates/full-decks/<name>/ and ask if it fits. If the user's content suggests something obvious (e.g. "我要做产品发布会" → product-launch), propose it confidently instead of asking blindly.

A good opening message looks like:

我可以给你做这份 PPT！先确认三件事：

1. 大致内容 / 页数 / 观众是谁？
2. 风格偏好？我建议从这 3 个主题里选一个：tokyo-night（技术分享默认好看）、xiaohongshu-white（小红书风）、corporate-clean（正式汇报）。
3. 要不要用我现成的 tech-sharing 全 deck 模板打底？

Only after those are clear, scaffold the deck and start writing.

Quick start

1. Scaffold a new deck. From the repo root:

   ./scripts/new-deck.sh my-talk
   open examples/my-talk/index.html
   

2. Pick a theme. Open the deck and press T to cycle. Or hard-code it:

   <link rel="stylesheet" id="theme-link" href="../assets/themes/aurora.css">
   

   Catalog in references/themes.md.
3. Pick layouts. Copy <section class="slide">...</section> blocks out of files in templates/single-page/ into your deck. Replace the demo data. Catalog in references/layouts.md.
4. Add animations. Put data-anim="fade-up" (or class="anim-fade-up") on any element. On <ul>/grids, use anim-stagger-list for sequenced reveals. For canvas FX, use <div data-fx="knowledge-graph">...</div> and include <script src="../assets/animations/fx-runtime.js"></script>. Catalog in references/animations.md.
5. Use a full-deck template. Copy templates/full-decks/<name>/ into examples/my-talk/ as a starting point. Each folder is self-contained with scoped CSS. Catalog in references/full-decks.md and gallery at templates/full-decks-index.html.
6. Render to PNG.

   ./scripts/render.sh templates/theme-showcase.html       # one shot
   ./scripts/render.sh examples/my-talk/index.html 12      # 12 slides
   

Authoring rules (important)

• Always start from a template. Don't author slides from scratch — copy the closest layout from templates/single-page/ first, then replace content.
• Use tokens, not literal colors. Every color, radius, shadow should come from CSS variables defined in assets/base.css and overridden by a theme. Good: color: var(--text-1). Bad: color: #111.
• Don't invent new layout files. Prefer composing existing ones. Only add a new templates/single-page/*.html if none of the 30 fit.
• Respect chrome slots. .deck-header, .deck-footer, .slide-number and the progress bar are provided by assets/base.css + runtime.js.
• Keyboard-first. Always include <script src="../assets/runtime.js"></script> so the deck supports ← → / T / A / F / S / O / hash deep-links.
• One .slide per logical page. runtime.js makes .slide.is-active visible; all others are hidden.
• Supply notes. Wrap speaker notes in <div class="notes">…</div> inside each slide. Press S to open the overlay.
• NEVER put presenter-only text on the slide itself. Descriptive text like "这一页展示了……" or "Speaker: 这里可以补充……" or small explanatory captions aimed at the presenter MUST go inside <div class="notes">, NOT as visible <p> / <span> elements on the slide. The .notes class is display:none by default — it only appears in the S overlay. Slides should contain ONLY audience-facing content (titles, bullet points, data, charts, images).

Rendering to PNG

scripts/render.sh wraps headless Chrome at /Applications/Google Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google Chrome. For multi-slide capture, runtime.js exposes #/N deep-links, and render.sh iterates 1..N.

./scripts/render.sh templates/single-page/kpi-grid.html        # single page
./scripts/render.sh examples/demo-deck/index.html 8 out-dir    # 8 slides, custom dir
