## What it is
Bespoke.js is a super minimal (1KB) modular presentation micro-framework for modern browsers, providing a core slide-deck engine with a control API and event system. All additional functionality, from themes to keyboard navigation, is added via its rich plugin ecosystem.

## Use cases
- create html slide decks in the browser
- build a custom presentation framework with plugins
- make lightweight browser-based presentations
- scaffold a presentation project with gulp and yeoman
- add slide navigation to a web page

## When to choose
- you want a tiny, hackable slide engine you fully control
- you prefer composing functionality from small plugins over a batteries-included tool
- you want to build custom themes for html presentations

## When to avoid
- you want a full-featured presentation tool out of the box like reveal.js
- you need PowerPoint-style export or non-browser output
- you need a library with frequent updates and active maintenance
