Our mission

Presentations should be as good as your ideas

We're building the future of presentations — where code meets creativity and a single HTML file replaces an entire slide suite.

Our story

Why we built HTMLSlides

Slide software hasn't truly evolved in decades. You still drag boxes around a canvas, fight with alignment guides, and lose hours tweaking fonts instead of refining your story. Great ideas die in bad slides every single day.

We were a team of engineers, designers, and educators who got tired of the cycle. We wanted presentations that could be version-controlled, collaborated on in pull requests, and rendered perfectly on any device without installing anything.

So we asked a radical question: what if a presentation was just a single HTML file? No cloud dependency. No proprietary format. No app to install. Just open it in a browser and present.

HTMLSlides was born from that question, and we've been obsessing over it ever since.

The best tool is the one that gets out of your way and lets your thinking shine through.

What we believe

Our guiding principles

Code over WYSIWYG

Presentations should be versionable, diffable, and programmable. Text files beat proprietary formats.

Simplicity first

One file, zero dependencies, works everywhere. No build step, no bundler, no server required.

Design by default

Beautiful output without design skills. Smart layouts, type scales, and color systems baked in.

Open by nature

Standard HTML, CSS, and JS. No vendor lock-in, no walled garden. Your presentations are truly yours.

Careers

We're hiring

We're a small, remote-first team that ships fast and cares deeply about craft. We value clear thinking over credentials, and shipping over slide decks (ironic, we know).

If you're excited about rethinking how people communicate ideas and you want to work on problems at the intersection of design, code, and AI, we'd love to hear from you.
