# Slides > Browser-based presentation editor with HTML, CSS and code support Slides is a web-based presentation editor from the creators of the open source reveal.js framework.

Developer mode exposes each slide's markup, code blocks get syntax highlighting with line-by-line steps, and Pro adds a CSS editor. - **Slides Agent:** An AI agent in the editor sidebar, in beta, builds and redesigns slides, writes speaker notes, researches topics and adds charts. AI use draws on monthly credits: 50 on Lite and 400 on Pro. - **Live presenting:** A deck can be streamed so viewers follow along in their own browsers, with a speaker view for notes and timing, a phone remote control, a live cursor and freehand annotation. - **Sharing and embedding:** Public decks are shared by link or embedded on other sites. Pro and Team add named private links with passwords and expiry dates. Scroll and kiosk modes change how a deck plays. - **Import and export:** PDF, PowerPoint, Markdown and reveal.js content can be imported. Lite and Pro export to PDF, PPTX and a self-contained HTML package that keeps animations and works offline. - **API and MCP server:** A REST API works with decks and account data, a Define API creates prefilled presentations, and an MCP server connects Claude, ChatGPT and other AI tools to a Slides account. ## Good for - Developers and technical speakers who show code or math on slides - People who want to fine-tune a deck with their own HTML and CSS - Teams that want shared themes, slide templates and media on a branded subdomain ## Worth knowing - Free accounts can create only public decks, and those decks show ads. - PDF, PowerPoint and HTML export need Lite or Pro, and PowerPoint exports are flattened, so text and images cannot be edited separately. - Lite allows 1 collaborator per deck and 1 GB of storage; private links, Dropbox sync, custom CSS and API access start at Pro. - Editing happens in a web browser with an internet connection; presenting offline relies on a paid plan. ## Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Dropbox, Google Analytics, Unsplash, GIPHY, Okta, Microsoft Entra **Tags:** Presentations, AI features, Templates, Public API ## Alternatives - [Google Slides](https://toolgpa.com/tools/google-slides): Browser-based presentation builder, free with a Google Account.
