## Introduction
PPT Master is an open-source Python tool that uses AI to convert documents or topics into real, native PowerPoint presentations. Unlike screenshot-based or image-only slide generators, it produces .pptx files with editable shapes, transitions, animations, data-backed charts, and optional audio narration from speaker notes.

## What PPT Master Does
- Generates native .pptx files with editable text, shapes, and layouts
- Creates data-driven charts and tables from structured input
- Adds slide transitions and element animations automatically
- Produces audio narration from speaker notes using TTS
- Supports custom .pptx templates for brand consistency

## Architecture Overview
PPT Master is a Python application that combines LLM-based content generation with the python-pptx library for native PowerPoint file creation. The pipeline works in stages: content planning, slide layout selection, element placement, chart generation, and optional audio synthesis. Each stage is modular, allowing you to customize or replace individual components.

## Self-Hosting & Configuration
- Install Python 3.9+ and the required dependencies via pip
- Configure your LLM provider API key in the environment
- Optionally provide a custom .pptx template for branded output
- Adjust slide count, language, and narration settings in the config file
- Run as a CLI tool or integrate into automated document pipelines

## Key Features
- True native PowerPoint output with fully editable elements
- Chart and table generation from structured data inputs
- Template support for consistent corporate branding
- Audio narration generation from speaker notes
- Multi-language content generation support

- **Slidev** — developer-focused Markdown slides, not .pptx output
- **Marp** — Markdown to slides, but produces PDF/HTML, not native PowerPoint
- **Gamma** — AI presentation tool but proprietary and cloud-based
