Big is a tiny (~16kb) HTML-based presentation system where slides are simple div elements and text is automatically sized to fit the screen. It is configuration-free, uses CSS Grid layouts, supports speaker notes via the developer console, and themes are plain CSS.

Use cases

  • create a presentation quickly without fiddling with design
  • make slides from plain HTML divs
  • give a talk with speaker notes on a second screen
  • host a slideshow on GitHub Pages
  • present on touch devices with swipe navigation
  • print a presentation or jump between slides
  • build a themed slide deck with custom CSS

When to choose

  • you want a zero-configuration, minimal slide system
  • you prefer writing slides in HTML rather than a GUI editor
  • you need a very lightweight deck hosted as a static webpage
  • you want automatic text sizing and simple keyboard/touch navigation

When to avoid

  • you need PowerPoint-style features like animations, transitions, or embedded media editing
  • you want a WYSIWYG editor or collaborative slide editing
  • you need complex layouts, charts, or rich slide templates out of the box
  • you require a non-web presentation format like PDF export with full fidelity
