Unlike screenshot-based tools, it produces real PowerPoint shapes with native animations, making the output fully editable in Microsoft PowerPoint, Google Slides, or LibreOffice Impress. ## What PPT Master Does - Converts documents, markdown, and text into native PPTX presentations - Generates real PowerPoint shapes, charts, and diagrams instead of images - Applies native slide transitions and element animations - Supports multiple layout templates and design themes - Provides both CLI and web-based interfaces for generation ## Architecture Overview PPT Master is a Python application that parses input documents, uses LLM APIs to structure content into slide layouts, and then renders each slide using the python-pptx library. The rendering pipeline handles shape placement, text formatting, chart generation, and animation sequencing to produce standards-compliant OOXML output. ## Self-Hosting & Configuration - Install via pip or clone the repository - Configure your LLM API key (supports OpenAI, Anthropic, and others) - Customize templates by editing the built-in theme files - Run the web UI with a single command for interactive use - Deploy via Docker for team access ## Key Features - Native PPTX output with real editable shapes and text boxes - Built-in animation and transition support - Multiple design themes and layout presets - Chart and diagram generation from structured data - Batch processing for generating multiple presentations ## Comparison with Similar Tools - **Gamma** — cloud-only SaaS; PPT Master is open-source and self-hostable - **Slidev** — developer-focused HTML slides; PPT Master outputs native PPTX - **Beautiful.ai** — proprietary; PPT Master gives full control over output - **Marp** — markdown to PDF/HTML; PPT Master targets native PowerPoint format ## FAQ **Q: Can I edit the generated slides in PowerPoint?** A: Yes.
