Tightened Slide
Use this workflow when a user asks for a Tightened Slide deck, horizontal swipe presentation, HTML slide deck, launch deck, analysis deck, framework deck, product deck, or data-driven talk.
Operating Assumptions
- This is a Tightened Slide only system.
- The output is a static HTML deck, normally , with an adjacent folder.
- The template is .
- Body slides must use registered to layouts.
- The validator is required before delivery.
- Supported language modes are English and Korean.
Step 1: Clarify Only What Matters
If the user provides a complete outline and assets, proceed. If key inputs are missing, ask at most three questions:
- Audience and presentation setting.
- Target duration or page count.
- Source material, language mode, required images/data, and hard constraints.
If the theme is unspecified, default to International Klein Blue from
.
If the language mode is unspecified, default to English.
Step 2: Prepare The Deck
Create the target folder and image folder:
bash
mkdir -p path/to/deck/images
cp assets/template.html path/to/deck/index.html
Immediately replace the
placeholder in
.
Set the language mode on the root element:
html
<html lang="en" data-language="en">
or:
html
<html lang="ko" data-language="ko">
Korean mode uses the template font stack
,
,
, and
before falling back to Inter and system sans fonts.
If the deck must work offline with local animation fallback, keep
reachable from the copied HTML path or accept the CDN fallback built into the template.
Step 3: Preflight
Before writing slide markup:
- Read the template block.
- Read
references/layout-lock.md
.
- Read the relevant skeletons in .
- Confirm every class you plan to use exists in the template.
- Do not invent global classes. Use inline styles only for page-specific tuning.
Create a planning table before coding:
text
page -> data-layout -> reason -> image slot
For 7-8 page decks, use at least six different
layouts. For 10+ page decks, use at least eight.
Step 4: Pick Layouts
Use the registered layout set:
- Index Cover
- Vertical Timeline + KPI
- Split Statement
- Six Cells
- Three Layers
- KPI Tower
- Horizontal Bar
- Duo Compare
- Dot Matrix Statement
- Split Closing
- Horizontal Timeline
- Manifesto + Ink Banner
- Three Forces
- Loop Form
- Matrix + Hero Stat
- Multi-card Brief
- System Diagram
- Why Now
- Four Cards
- Stacked KPI Ledger
- Tech Spec Sheet
- Image Hero
Use
S08 + Tightened Map Component
for maps, routes, city relationships, location networks, or historical movement pages.
Use
for one large image. Use
or
adaptations for multiple images. Do not create unregistered image split or evidence wall layouts.
Step 5: Apply The Visual System
Hard rules:
- One accent color per deck.
- No gradients, shadows, rounded cards, glass, neon, 3D, or decorative borders.
- Large type uses light weights: or .
- Body text uses restrained weights and clear hierarchy.
- Large sizes use with .
- Headings sit on the left/top content axis unless using registered statement/split layouts.
- Kicker text sits above the title, not beside it.
- already has horizontal padding; do not add another padding layer inside it.
- Keep all captions, labels, and footnotes above the bottom navigation safe area.
- SVG may draw geometry only; visible labels must be HTML.
Language rules:
- English mode uses concise sentence case titles and direct body copy.
- Korean mode uses short Korean titles, compact body lines, and consistent product terms.
- Diagram labels and generated-image text must match the chosen language mode.
Step 6: Image Flow
If images are needed:
- Ask before generating new images.
- Choose the layout slot before writing the prompt.
- Use
references/image-prompts.md
.
- Save generated or provided images in .
- Name images
{page}-{semantic-name}.{ext}
.
- Add to every local image.
Slot defaults:
Step 7: Validate
Run:
bash
node scripts/validate-deck.mjs path/to/index.html
Fix every error. Warnings require visual review.
Then open the deck in a browser and inspect:
- title alignment
- type weight
- spacing between title and body
- image crop and image slot fit
- captions and footnotes above navigation
- ESC index visibility
- static mode
Use
as the delivery checklist.
