>It has more features than what I expected.

appreciate it

>Can you share some details bout the tech stack and how you wrote it?

I'm old school, it's php on the back and vanilla JS on the front with JQ for basic dom manipulation, Node and socket.io for the chatgpt back and forth.

>Who is paying the tokens?

Me for now :)

>In my opinion, they have too much text. I prefer shorter text in slides.

fair point. I generate a little extra so that the teacher can remove the content that is not relevant. I'm a classroom teacher, so I personally use the slides as a way to cover basics and then to give to students who are absent to catch up (happens a lot).

>I alfo got white text on a black rectangle over a light blue background.

There is a "Themes" buttons which offers about a dozen premade themes and then customization for all aspects of the slides (paragraph, true/false, images etc). It's pretty quick to find a style that appeals to you.

Thanks for your feedback.



I was thinking about slides for conferences. (I tested with the word "banana" anyway.) In conferences, walls of text is a very common design error.

I teach math in the first year of the university. When I started, One very useful recomendation was:

> Whater you write in the blackboard, they will copy in their paper notebook and may read and learn some day later.

> Whaterver you only say, goes away with the wind.

So I try to write down in the blackboard everithing I say.

So slides for a classroom shoud have more text than what I usually expect.


I appreciate that. It's hard to find the perfect balance.


It's possible to insert notes for each slide (atleast ms office ppt allow that). We do that for our training slides. The notes are detailed descriptions while the slides remain short bullet points.
