Does this skill use Python or JavaScript to create slides?

The skill uses PptxGenJS (JavaScript) for slide authoring to ensure the output remains editable. Python is used for auxiliary tasks like rendering previews and performing layout validation.

How does it prevent text from overflowing off the slide?

The skill includes a 'slides_test.py' script and automated layout helpers that check for element bounds and overlaps, warning the user if content exceeds the slide canvas.

Can I edit the generated slides in Microsoft PowerPoint?

Yes, the skill prioritizes native PowerPoint elements such as text boxes, shapes, and charts, ensuring that the final .pptx file is fully editable by human reviewers.

How does the skill handle complex content like equations or code?

It includes specialized helpers like latexToSvgDataUri() for mathematical equations and codeToRuns() for creating syntax-highlighted code blocks within slides.
