# Magazine Web PPT · Editorial-Style Web Slide Deck Skill
|
||
|
||
A [Claude Code / Claude Agent Skills](https://agentskills.io/) skill that generates **single-file HTML horizontal-swipe decks** with an "**editorial magazine × electronic ink**" aesthetic — picture *Monocle* with code stitched in.
|
||
|
||
> Distilled by [Guizang](https://x.com/op7418) from offline talks like "One-Person Company: Organizations Folded by AI" and "A New Way of Working." Every pitfall hit during those decks is logged in `checklist.md`.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
## What you get
|
||
|
||
- 🖋 **Three-tier type system**: serif for headlines, sans-serif for body, mono for metadata
|
||
- 🌊 **WebGL fluid / dispersion backgrounds** — visible on hero pages, restrained on body pages
|
||
- 📐 **Horizontal swipe navigation**: ← → arrows / scroll wheel / touch swipe / bottom dots / ESC for index
|
||
- 🎨 **5 curated theme presets**: Ink Classic / Indigo Porcelain / Forest Ink / Kraft Paper / Dune
|
||
- 🧩 **10 page layouts**: cover, act divider, big numbers, lead image + text, image grid, pipeline, hero question, big quote, before/after, image + text mix
|
||
- 📄 **Single HTML file** — no build, no server, open directly in the browser
|
||
|
||
## Fits / Doesn't fit
|
||
|
||
**✅ Fits**: offline talks, industry keynotes, private salons, AI product launches, demo day, presentations with strong personal voice
|
||
|
||
**❌ Doesn't fit**: data-heavy tables, training decks (density too low), multi-user collaborative editing (static HTML)
|
||
|
||
## Install
|
||
|
||
### Option 1: Paste this to an AI (recommended)
|
||
|
||
> Install the `guizang-ppt-skill` Claude Code skill for me. Steps:
|
||
>
|
||
> 1. Make sure `~/.claude/skills/` exists (create if not)
|
||
> 2. Run `git clone https://github.com/op7418/guizang-ppt-skill.git ~/.claude/skills/magazine-web-ppt`
|
||
> 3. Verify: `ls ~/.claude/skills/magazine-web-ppt/` should show `SKILL.md`, `assets/`, `references/`
|
||
> 4. Tell me when done. Later, saying things like "make me a magazine-style deck" will trigger this skill.
|
||
|
||
Paste the block above into Claude Code / Cursor / any AI agent with shell access and it handles the install.
|
||
|
||
### Option 2: Manual CLI
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
git clone https://github.com/op7418/guizang-ppt-skill.git ~/.claude/skills/magazine-web-ppt
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### How to trigger it
|
||
|
||
Once installed, Claude Code auto-detects the skill. Trigger phrases:
|
||
|
||
- "Make me a magazine-style deck"
|
||
- "Generate a horizontal swipe deck"
|
||
- "Editorial magazine style presentation"
|
||
- "Electronic ink slides for my talk"
|
||
|
||
## Workflow
|
||
|
||
The skill is a structured 6-step flow; Claude walks you through each:
|
||
|
||
1. **Clarify intent** — 6-question checklist: audience, duration, source material, images, theme, hard constraints
|
||
2. **Copy template** — `assets/template.html` → project folder, update `<title>`, swap theme vars
|
||
3. **Fill content** — pick from 10 layout skeletons, paste, edit copy (with class-name pre-flight + theme rhythm plan)
|
||
4. **Self-check** — match against `references/checklist.md`; P0 issues must all pass
|
||
5. **Preview** — open the HTML in a browser
|
||
6. **Iterate** — use inline styles to tune font size, height, spacing
|
||
|
||
Full spec in [`SKILL.md`](./SKILL.md).

|

|
||
## Theme presets
|
||
|
||
Pick from `references/themes.md`. **Custom hex values are not allowed** — protecting the aesthetic matters more than freedom of choice.
|
||
|
||
| Theme | Best for |
|
||
|------|---------|
|
||
| 🖋 Ink Classic | general default, commercial launches, when in doubt |
|
||
| 🌊 Indigo Porcelain | tech / research / AI / technical keynotes |
|
||
| 🌿 Forest Ink | nature / sustainability / culture / non-fiction |
|
||
| 🍂 Kraft Paper | nostalgic / humanist / literary / indie zines |
|
||
| 🌙 Dune | art / design / creative / gallery |
|
||
|
||
Switching themes only requires replacing the 6 variables at the top of `template.html`'s `:root{}` block — all other CSS flows through `var(--...)`.
|
||
|
||
## Core design principles
|
||
|
||
1. **Restraint over flash** — WebGL backgrounds only bleed through on hero pages
|
||
2. **Structure over decoration** — information hierarchy via type size + typeface + grid whitespace, not shadows or floating cards
|
||
3. **Images are first-class citizens** — crop only from the bottom; top and sides stay intact
|
||
4. **Rhythm lives on hero pages** — hero / non-hero alternation keeps the eye from fatiguing
|
||
5. **Terms stay consistent** — Skills is Skills; no mix-and-match translations

Bugs, layout issues, new layout requests — Issues and PRs welcome. Prioritize:
|
||
|
||
- Add new classes to `template.html` first; don't let `layouts.md` reference undefined classes
|
||
- Log pitfalls into `checklist.md` at the matching P0 / P1 / P2 / P3 tier
|
||
- New theme colors go into `themes.md` with a recommended use case
