## What it is
jmpress.js is a jQuery plugin for building websites and presentations on an infinite canvas, ported from impress.js. It leverages CSS3 transforms and transitions to create pannable, zoomable slide-like interfaces in modern browsers.

## Use cases
- build a zooming presentation website in the browser
- create an infinite canvas-style web page with jQuery
- make a slideshow with CSS3 transforms and transitions
- port impress.js-style presentations into a jQuery project
- build pan-and-zoom interactive landing pages

## When to choose
- your project already uses jQuery and you want impress.js-style canvas navigation
- you need a lightweight presentation engine driven by CSS3 transforms
- you want a plugin-based, extensible alternative to impress.js

## When to avoid
- your stack does not include jQuery and you prefer a dependency-free library like impress.js
- you need modern framework (React/Vue) integration or active development
- you must support browsers without CSS3 transform/transition support
