Craft
- Pick the format. A talk or presentation uses
slides. A page to read or operate usesinterface. If the format is unclear, read the format map. - Read the shared identity rules and the build and check workflow. If the material is in Russian, also read material in Russian.
- Follow only the chosen branch below. Open a reference from the "by content" list only if the material has that content. Do not read the catalog or references ahead of time.
Slides
Before HTML, read the talk outline and choosing a layout, then the visual language and the mechanics. Get the chosen fragment's contract from compose.py --list-placeholders.
By content:
- numeric chart: charts;
- animation, number counter: motion and numbers;
- video, screen recording, photo: video and images;
- source code: code on a slide;
- a URL shown on screen: QR code;
- feedback on the deck or handing it to the organizer: edits and release.
Interface
Pick the template without asking. A new standalone page: blank with the shell. Embedding in another site, a fragment, or no header: bare, styles only.
Read the page layout, the visual language and the component index. The index maps the material's content to separate component references. Open only the ones you need.
If the material will be printed or saved as PDF, read print.
Another format or extending the system
Read the extension rules. Level theory, catalog internals and releases are not needed for a normal build.
