Work with AI

Thanks to Slidev being markdown-based, it works great with AI coding agents.

Skills

Slidev provides official skills for AI coding agents, enabling them to understand Slidev's syntax, features, and best practices when helping you create presentations.

Installation

Install the Slidev skill to your AI coding agent:

npx skills add slidevjs/slidev

The source code of the skill is here.

Example Prompts

Once installed, you can ask agents to help with various Slidev tasks:

Create a Slidev presentation about TypeScript generics with code examples

Add a two-column slide with code on the left and explanation on the right

Set up click animations to reveal bullet points one by one

Configure the presentation for PDF export with speaker notes

What's Included

The Slidev skill provides knowledge about:

• Markdown syntax, slide separators, and frontmatter
• Click animations and transitions
• Code highlighting, Monaco editor, and magic-move
• Diagrams (Mermaid, PlantUML) and LaTeX math
• Built-in layouts and components
• Exporting and hosting options

VS Code Extension

The <LinkInline link="features/vscode-extension" /> provides Language Model Tools that allow VS Code's Copilot and other AI assistants to interact with your Slidev project directly. These tools enable AI to:

• Get information about the active slide and project
• Retrieve content of specific slides
• List and search slides by title
• Navigate between slides

See <LinkInline link="features/vscode-extension#ai-integration" /> for more details.
