# Premium Ppt Design

> Create or refine premium-style Chinese project presentation decks (`.pptx`) with a polished, high-end visual language. Use when the task involves rebuilding a project or academic presentation into a more mature, keynote-like deck with strong hierarchy, restrained color, non-default list styling, and reusable JavaScript-based slide generation. Especially useful for Chinese project reports, course presentations, and academic demos that should feel more premium than standard three-column template slides.

# Premium PPT Design

## Overview

Use this skill when a presentation needs to look more refined than a standard course PPT but still remain editable as a PowerPoint deck. This skill packages:

- a reusable premium Chinese deck generator in JavaScript
- a style guide that records the design principles and user constraints
- a problem-slide variant generator for quick style exploration

## Workflow

### 1. Start from the style guide

Read [references/PREMIUM_STYLE_GUIDE.md](references/PREMIUM_STYLE_GUIDE.md) first.

That file contains:

- the user’s explicit style constraints
- the premium presentation principles that were stabilized during iteration
- the note that the truly reproducible premium rules were first captured in `premiumSlide()` and later expanded in `build_deck_cn_premium.js`

### 2. Pick the right script

Use the bundled scripts based on the task:

- `scripts/build_deck_cn_premium.js`
  Use when creating or refining the full premium Chinese deck
- `scripts/build_problem_variants.js`
  Use when exploring alternative treatments for the “problem / pain points” slide before applying a style to the whole deck

### 3. Preserve the premium language

When editing or extending the deck, preserve these qualities unless the user explicitly asks otherwise:

- understated palette
- enlarged content canvas with reduced outer margin
- title-first hierarchy
- thin black line beneath titles
- restrained gold accents
- dark emphasis panels for the most important statements
- Chinese copy without `。`
- non-default list styling instead of standard bullet points

### 4. Prefer script changes over manual slide-only tweaks

If the deck needs to evolve, edit the JavaScript source first so the result stays reproducible. Generate the `.pptx` from the script rather than treating the PowerPoint file as the source of truth.

## Common Requests

### Make an existing deck feel more premium

1. Read the style guide
2. Inspect the current slide types: cover, problem framing, overview, demo, workflow, highlights, summary
3. Update layout and spacing before touching decorations
4. Reduce default bullets and convert them into designed information rows
5. Rebuild the deck from `build_deck_cn_premium.js`

### Reuse the style in a new conversation

If the user starts a fresh thread, tell Codex to:

1. read `references/PREMIUM_STYLE_GUIDE.md`
2. open `scripts/build_deck_cn_premium.js`
3. continue editing while preserving the current premium Chinese presentation style

### Explore a new visual direction safely

If the user wants to compare options before touching the whole deck, use `scripts/build_problem_variants.js` first to prototype the style on a single slide.

## Bundled Resources

### scripts/

- `build_deck_cn_premium.js`: Full premium Chinese project presentation generator
- `build_problem_variants.js`: Style comparison generator for the problem slide

### references/

- `PREMIUM_STYLE_GUIDE.md`: Design rules, user constraints, and reproducibility notes

## Notes

- This skill is optimized for Chinese project or academic presentations, not posters
- The deck source is JavaScript and should remain the editable source of truth
- If a user asks where the premium principles live, point them to:
  - `premiumSlide()` in `build_problem_variants.js`
  - `build_deck_cn_premium.js`
