SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

It turns complex academic content, outlines, or research notes into clear, lecture-ready presentation slides in MARP format with THWS-appropriate styling.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Slide deck generation from content: Transforms lecture outlines and study material into a coherent MARP slide deck suitable for teaching.
  • Didactic slide structure & pacing: Plans slide count and learning flow for typical lecture lengths (e.g., 45 minutes) while keeping cognitive load low.
  • Reference-driven, theme-consistent formatting: Produces slides that follow the required THWS MARP syntax and layout conventions.
  • Language clarification: Asks for German/English and target audience when the prompt does not specify them.

Quick Start

Use the marp-slides skill to generate a THWS-styled MARP slide deck from your lecture outline in a single pass by asking: “Create a slide deck for a 45-minute university lecture from the following outline, with language and target audience aligned to my students.”

FAQPage Schema
How do I convert lecture notes into MARP presentation slides?

You can convert lecture notes into MARP presentation slides by providing structured academic outlines, which the generator transforms into a coherent deck optimized for didactic clarity and pacing for typical lecture lengths.

What is the best way to structure a 45-minute university lecture as a slide deck?

The best way to structure a 45-minute university lecture is to optimize cognitive load by planning slide count and learning flow, keeping the deck focused on didactic clarity and pacing rather than dense text blocks.

Can I use MARP slides for teaching without explicitly requesting the MARP format?

Yes, MARP slides for teaching can be generated even when the MARP format is not explicitly requested, as the system automatically applies THWS MARP syntax requirements, fixed slide structures, and approved CSS classes to the output.

Does MARP slide generation support both German and English lecture content?

MARP slide generation supports both German and English lecture content, and will ask you to clarify the target language and audience when the initial prompt does not explicitly specify them.

How do I ensure my presentation deck follows THWS MARP syntax requirements?

To ensure your presentation deck follows THWS MARP syntax requirements, the generator enforces a fixed slide structure and uses only approved CSS classes by reading mandatory MARP reference files before creating any slides.
