Show HN: Generateppt, an anti-bloat presentation tool

https://www.generateppt.com/
1•fer_momento•1h ago
hi hn, i’ve been building a tool called GeneratePPT:

https://www.generateppt.com/

the basic idea is simple.

a lot of presentation tools keep adding more design controls, more panels, more options, more ways to tweak small things.

but i think for a lot of people that just creates more friction.

so i wanted to try the opposite approach.

this is obviously not for everyone. if you enjoy tweaking every spacing value and every visual detail, you’ll probably hate it.

but i think there are a lot of people who just want to finish the presentation and are not being paid to spend an hour adjusting some microscopic drop shadow blur

i’m also trying to remove some of the annoying work with charts that auto-update, layouts that adapt to the content, and an ai editor where you can basically talk to the slides instead of clicking around forever.

would love honest feedback!
