This deck showcases every slide type variation available in the Gemma presentations system. Use it as a reference when building new presentations.

Let's start with opener variations — title slides, section leads, and agenda slides.

Use this layout when you need to introduce the speaker with a bio and headshot. The circular placeholder gets replaced with an actual photo.

Use this for agenda or table of contents slides. The numbered sections with purple borders give structure. Works well with 3-6 items.

The workhorse slide. 3-5 bullet points with a blockquote for the key insight. Don't overload — if you need more points, split into two slides.

Use two columns for before/after, pros/cons, comparison between approaches, or any side-by-side content. The grid layout keeps columns even.

Three-column cards for features, services, or capabilities. Keep text short. The purple top border and light background provide visual structure.

Code slides — keep them focused on one concept. The light lavender background and syntax highlighting come from the theme. Use inline comments sparingly.

ASCII diagrams work surprisingly well in presentations. They render cleanly in the code block style and are easy to maintain.

Use this for honest tradeoff discussions. Teal for positives, coral for negatives. Always show both sides — it builds credibility.

Use for key metrics, KPIs, or stats that need to land visually. 3-4 numbers max. Let the numbers breathe — no competing text.

Tables for structured comparisons. Keep columns narrow — 4-5 columns max. The theme styles headers with midnight plum background and alternating row colors.

Horizontal timeline for evolution stories, project phases, or roadmaps. Uses scoped CSS. The gradient from lavender to midnight plum shows progression.

Process steps for how-we-work slides, project methodology, or any sequential flow. The numbered circles create a clear visual hierarchy.

Comparison matrix with emoji indicators for quick visual scanning. Works well for tool/approach comparisons. Keep to 4-6 rows and 3-5 columns.

Use for impactful quotes — from yourself, a client, or a noteworthy source. The oversized text with ExtraLight weight creates visual contrast against Regular body text slides.

Maximum emphasis on a single idea. Use sparingly — one or two per deck. The centered, oversized text forces the audience to sit with the message.

Numbered takeaways for summary or key learnings slides. 3-5 items. Bold the key phrase in each. These should be memorable and self-contained.

The classic consulting narrative arc. Coral for problem, purple for solution, teal for result. Works great for case studies and project summaries.

Open questions to spark discussion. Works well near the end of a talk or before Q&A. The blockquote-style cards make each question stand on its own.

Standard closing slide. Logo, email, open for questions.

Alternative closing with a CTA focus — "let's talk" rather than "thanks". Better for sales/pitch decks.
