Stack is a JavaScript presentation library by Mike Bostock that renders slide decks with intuitive scroll-based navigation. It supports keyboard and scrollbar navigation, automatic content scaling on resize, and activate/deactivate events for triggering animations when slides become visible.

Use cases

• create scroll-based slide presentations in the browser
• build a talk deck that navigates with arrow keys or the scrollbar
• add fade-in slide transitions to a web presentation
• trigger animations only when a slide is visible
• make presentation content scale automatically when the window resizes

When to choose

• you want a lightweight, dependency-free scroll-driven presentation in plain JavaScript
• you prefer natural scrolling navigation over click-to-advance slide tools
• you need activate/deactivate hooks for per-slide animations

When to avoid

• you need actively maintained software with recent updates and support
• you need speaker notes, PDF export, or other full presentation-suite features
• you need a framework-specific solution like reveal.js with a large plugin ecosystem
