SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires @marp-team/marp-cli, slidev, python-pptx.

What problem does it solve? Creating polished slide decks manually in PowerPoint or Keynote is slow and hard to automate. This Skill turns plain Markdown content into finished presentations in PDF, PPTX, HTML, or PNG formats without manual slide design work. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Multi-Tool Support: Choose between Marp for Markdown-to-PDF/PPTX decks, Slidev for interactive web-based tech talks, and python-pptx for programmatic PowerPoint generation from data. - Ready-Made Themes: Includes three custom Marp CSS themes (modern-dark, clean-corporate, vibrant-startup) plus guidance on built-in themes like gaia and uncover. - Design Guidance: Built-in slide design principles covering visual hierarchy, the 10-20-30 rule, color usage, and standard slide types. - Use Case: A developer needs a conference talk deck. They write slides in Markdown with code blocks and diagrams, apply the modern-dark theme, and export to PDF with a single Marp CLI command. ## Quick Start Create a pitch deck about our Q3 product roadmap as a Marp Markdown file and export it to PDF.

FAQPage Schema
How do I convert Markdown to PowerPoint slides?▼

Marp vs Slidev vs python-pptx for presentations?▼

Marp is best for quick Markdown-to-PDF/PPTX decks like reports and lectures. Slidev suits interactive web-based developer talks with Vue components. python-pptx fits programmatic PowerPoint generation from data or corporate templates.

How do I add a background image to a Marp slide?▼

Use the syntax ![bg](./assets/hero.jpg) on the slide where you want the background. Add options like ![bg opacity:.5] for transparency or ![bg right:40%] for split layouts with the image on one side.

Can I use custom CSS themes with Marp?▼

Does Marp support code blocks and math in slides?▼

Yes, Marp renders fenced code blocks with syntax highlighting and supports LaTeX math using inline $...$ or block $$...$$ notation. Tables, images, and per-slide directives via HTML comments are also supported.
