# BulletPoint

> BulletPoint is a free, browser-based PowerPoint (.pptx) editor. It imports, edits, and exports PPTX files entirely in the browser — no download, no signup required. It adds an AI chat assistant, AI slide translation, AI image generation, drag-and-drop slide editing, and fullscreen presentation mode.

BulletPoint is a web application at https://bulletpoint.dev/ for creating and editing Microsoft PowerPoint presentations online. It runs fully in a web browser.

## What it does

1. **Import PPTX** — Upload any .pptx file; text, shapes, images, and tables are parsed and placed at their original positions on a 16:9 (960×540) canvas.
2. **Edit slides** — Drag, resize, rotate, and restyle text, shapes, and images. Properties panel gives numeric control of position, size, rotation, opacity, font, and color. Toolbar provides bold/italic/underline, alignment, font size, and color.
3. **Slide management** — Add, delete, duplicate, and reorder slides from the slide panel.
4. **AI chat assistant** — Ask questions about the current slide or the whole deck ("What's on slide 3?", "How many slides do I have?"), get design suggestions, and request edits such as adding or deleting slides and changing colors.
5. **AI translation** — Translate selected text, the current slide, or the entire deck across many languages including English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Polish, Japanese, Korean, and Chinese.
6. **AI slide & image generation** — Generate title + bullet slides from a natural-language description, or generate an image from a text prompt (DALL·E) and insert it onto a slide.
7. **Export PPTX** — Download the edited presentation as a .pptx file; a "smaller file" option re-encodes images to reduce size.
8. **Export images & PDF** — Download one or all slides as PNG, or print to PDF.
9. **Presentation mode** — Present fullscreen with keyboard/click navigation, a laser pointer, and an elapsed timer.
10. **Multi-language UI** — Interface available in 12 languages.

## Who it is for

- Students and teachers who need to open or edit a PowerPoint deck without owning Microsoft Office.
- Business users who need a quick edit, translation, or image generation on a slide deck from any device.
- Anyone who needs a free alternative to Google Slides or desktop PowerPoint for .pptx files.

## How to use it (short steps)

1. Go to https://bulletpoint.dev/.
2. To start from an existing file, choose File → Import PPTX and select a .pptx file. To start fresh, the editor opens with a blank presentation.
3. Edit slides on the canvas: click to select, drag to move, double-click text to edit. Use the toolbar and properties panel to format.
4. Use the AI chat panel (right side) to ask about your deck, translate, or generate content.
5. Choose File → Export PPTX to download, or File → Print / PDF, or download slides as PNG.

## Privacy

PPTX parsing and editing run in the browser. AI features (translation, chat, image generation) send the relevant slide or deck content to server endpoints that proxy requests to OpenAI / an AI gateway. Sign-in is optional and handled by DB-backed email/password authentication.
