html-ppt-zhangzara-soft-editorial

This Claude Code skill generates a self-contained HTML presentation deck with Cormorant Garamond serif typography, warm paper tones, and sage, blush, and lemon accents. Use it for editorially sophisticated projects like brand stories, gallery presentations, or advisory decks that prioritize elegance and literary warmth over visual impact. The template includes a complete design system with decorative elements and slide layouts that must remain intact; users should clone the example HTML and assets folder, replace placeholder content, and expand the deck by duplicating existing slide layouts rather than introducing new design variations.

# Soft Editorial

> Cormorant Garamond serif on warm paper with sage, blush, and lemon accents.

A single self-contained HTML deck — typography, palette, decorative system,
and slide vocabulary are all tuned together. Mixing layouts across templates
breaks the system; stay inside this one.

## At a glance

- **Scheme:** light
- **Formality:** high
- **Density:** low
- **Slides in demo:** 12

## Best for

Anything that should feel literary, elegant, and unhurried: editorial features, longform brand stories, gallery / museum decks, advisory deliverables, wedding / lifestyle media, founder essays. Equally good for tech, research, or business decks that want a Sunday-supplement warmth instead of corporate polish.

## Avoid for

Decks that need visual heat or punch — the warm-paper palette and Cormorant serif are intentionally quiet.

## Workflow

1. **Clone `example.html` AND the `assets/` folder** into the user's workspace.
   This template ships an `assets/deck-stage.js` runtime (keyboard navigation,
   stage rendering); the HTML references it as `assets/deck-stage.js`, so the
   file must sit next to the cloned HTML or that path will 404 in the generated
   artifact and navigation will silently break. Inlining the JS into a single
   `<script>` block in the HTML is an acceptable alternative when a single
   self-contained file is preferred.
2. **Replace placeholder content** with the user's real headlines, body copy,
   numbers, names, dates, and section labels. Match existing dimensions when
   swapping image placeholders.
3. **Preserve the design system.** Never substitute fonts, recolor the palette,
   restructure the layout grid, or strip decorative elements (corner brackets,
   paper grain, geometric shapes, illustrated SVGs). They are part of the
   identity.
4. **Adjust deck length by duplicating layouts.** If the user has more content
   than the demo holds, duplicate an existing slide of the most appropriate
   layout. If less, drop slides from the bottom. Update page-number labels.
5. **Designing missing layouts:** if a slide needs a layout the template
   doesn't have, design it from scratch using the same fonts, palette,
   decorative vocabulary, spacing rhythm, and component grammar — never bail
   to a different template.
6. **Keep the navigation runtime as shipped.** If the deck ships an
   `assets/deck-stage.js` or inline keyboard handler, leave it intact.

## Output contract

Emit between `<artifact>` tags:

```
<artifact identifier="zhangzara-soft-editorial" type="text/html" title="Deck Title">
<!doctype html>
<html>...</html>
</artifact>
```
