• 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.

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. Which of the 36 themes fits? If unsure, recommend 2-3 candidates based on tone:
   • 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
