## What it is
Strut is an open-source HTML5 GUI editor for building spatial presentations, where slides are arranged in 3-D space and presented as a camera flight (impress.js style). It is a full-stack React/TanStack Start app with a local-first optimistic data layer, live sync, and AI-assisted slide authoring.

## Use cases
- create impress.js presentations visually without writing code
- build slide decks arranged in 3D space
- self-host a presentation editor
- generate slides from a text description with AI
- edit presentations collaboratively with live sync
- export and share presentation decks online

## When to choose
- you want non-linear, spatial presentations instead of flat slide decks
- you want a free, self-hostable open-source presentation tool
- you want AI-assisted deck authoring with your own API key
- you prefer local-first apps with optimistic editing

## When to avoid
- you need simple linear PowerPoint-style slides with print/PDF fidelity
- you need offline desktop presentation software like LibreOffice Impress
- you don't want to run a Node.js server or database for a presentation tool
