open-slide Best Practices for Israeli Developers

Adapted from 1weiho/open-slide (MIT). Hebrew and RTL adaptations by skills-il.

Problem

open-slide ships an opinionated authoring system: a fixed 1920×1080 React canvas, a typed DesignSystem const, a themes folder, an inspector that drops @slide-comment markers in source, and five built-in skills (slide-authoring, create-slide, create-theme, apply-comments, current-slide). None of those touch Hebrew or RTL. Out of the box, a deck written by a coding agent comes out left-aligned, system-font only, with paddingLeft that fights the Hebrew reading order, and no guidance for mixed Hebrew+English text. Israeli developers waste hours retrofitting RTL, loading Hebrew Google Fonts, and discovering that the type scale (140-200px hero) which works in Inter looks cramped in Heebo at the same weight.

Instructions

When to use

Use this skill whenever you are writing or editing code under slides/<id>/ in an open-slide project, creating a theme under themes/, or processing inspector comments, especially when any of that content is in Hebrew or bilingual.

New project setup

When in an empty folder or workspace with no existing open-slide project, scaffold one using:
