# Create Slides

You can now create a slide deck in StackAI using the Create Slides tool!

* The Create Slides tool allows you to generate a set of slides from a single prompt.
* Download the slides as a Powerpoint (.ppt) or PDF (.pdf) presentation!
* Tip: the tool does not have access to previous conversation context, so your prompt should include all necessary information for the slide deck.

### Step-by-Step: How to Use the Create Slides Tool

1. **Add an Input Node:**\
   Start your workflow with an Input node where the user can type their topic.
2. **Use an LLM Node:**\
   Connect the Input node to an LLM node (like OpenAI).
   * In the LLM node’s prompt, reference the input using "/" and instruct the LLM to create a prompt for slide creation based on the user's input.
3. **Add the Create Slides tool:**
   * Add a tool to the LLM and select Create Slides.
   * Reference the tool in the prompt using "@".
4. **Connect to Output or Template Node:**
   * Connect the Action node to an Output node to display the slides.

### Tips

* Make your input topic as clear and self-contained as possible.
* Use the LLM node to help structure or expand the user’s idea before it calls Create Slides.
* The output will be a set of slides you can display, export, or further process.
