## What it is
A Python CLI tool that converts PowerPoint .pptx files into Markdown, preserving titles, lists, formatting, images, and tables. It also supports alternative output formats like TiddlyWiki wikitext, Madoko, and Quarto.

## Use cases
- convert powerpoint slides to markdown
- extract pptx content into markdown notes
- turn pptx presentations into tiddlywiki wikitext
- migrate slide decks to quarto documents
- extract images from pptx files
- convert lecture slides to markdown notes

## When to choose
- you need to batch-convert .pptx files to Markdown with formatting preserved
- you want images extracted and referenced with relative paths
- you need hierarchical table-of-contents mapping with fuzzy title matching
- you target TiddlyWiki, Madoko, or Quarto output

## When to avoid
- you need to convert legacy .ppt files (convert to .pptx first)
- you need pptx-to-HTML or pptx-to-PDF conversion
- you need a GUI converter
