Using LLMs for slide: MDPR + mdpr-skill
Short summary
MDPR is a Markdown-to-PowerPoint runtime that solves LLM slide generation's core problem: models often own coordinates, colors, and spacing, causing visual drift. The solution separates concerns—LLMs suggest structure via mdpr-skill, while MDPR deterministically handles layout, theming, and rendering. Output is editable PPTX with HTML/PDF previews; creator seeks feedback on edge cases like dense tables and multilingual content.
