Motivation

Luke Slidewalker is here!

Powerpoint and its derivatives have been introduced in 1987 and been very popular since. Unfortunately powerpoint is notoriously lacking important features which are standard in other publishing software. The main pain point we found are:

  • page numbering
  • internationalization
  • indexing
  • automation
  • general semantic annotations

Powerpoint indexing

Open Source access

git clone https://github.com/WolfgangFahl/pySemanticSlides
cd pySemanticSlides
pip install .

Testing

pip install green
green
