## What it is
PptxGenJS is a JavaScript/TypeScript library for programmatically generating PowerPoint (.pptx) presentations with text, tables, shapes, images, and charts. It runs in Node.js, browsers, React, Angular, and Electron, exporting standards-compliant OOXML files without requiring a PowerPoint installation.

## Use cases
- generate powerpoint presentations from javascript
- export data as pptx slides in node
- convert html tables to powerpoint slides
- create charts and tables in pptx programmatically
- build slide decks in a react app
- generate reports as downloadable pptx files in the browser

## When to choose
- you need to generate .pptx files without a PowerPoint install or license
- you want a pure JavaScript solution that works in both Node and browsers
- you need TypeScript definitions and broad slide-object support including charts and slide masters

## When to avoid
- you need to read, parse, or edit existing PowerPoint files rather than create them
- you need pixel-perfect WYSIWYG rendering of complex layouts
- you are generating documents other than presentations, such as Word or Excel files

## Facets
- artifact type: library
