Quarto PPTX Creator

This skill guides you through transforming raw "materials" into a logical, educational presentation for self-study.

Workflow

Follow these steps to create a high-quality presentation:

  1. Analyze Materials: Read and categorize all provided documents, images, videos (transcripts/descriptions), and links. Identify key theoretical concepts and practical applications.
  2. Draft Syllabus: Create a teaching outline that moves from "Theory" (Concepts, Why, How it works) to "Practice" (Setup, Code, Exercise).
  3. Refine with User: Present the syllabus to the user. Iterate based on their feedback until the logic and depth are approved.
  4. Generate Content: Write the detailed educational content into a Quarto (.qmd) file.
    • Use the 16:9 Revealjs format (which exports to PPTX).
    • Ensure a "Self-Study" flow: clear explanations, visual aids (diagrams), and actionable steps.
  5. Final Review: Provide the final .qmd file and instructions on how to render it.

Output Guidelines

  • Format: Always target revealjs with format: pptx compatibility in mind.
  • Ratio: Default to 16:9.
  • Structure:
    • Intro: Hook and Learning Objectives.
    • Theory: Core concepts explained simply.
    • Bridge: Moving from theory to practical context.
    • Practice: Step-by-step guides or code walkthroughs.
    • Summary: Key takeaways and next steps.
