    Introduction

    Creating a presentation can be hard. Especially the initial part. This workflow gets you going from nothing to a full presentation in powerpoint in a couple of minutes from which you can start adding styles and extra content.

    Step 1: Open the Visual Basic Editor

    Windows:

    Go to Developer1 > Visual Basic

    Mac:

    Go to Tools > Macro > Visual Basic Editor

    Next insert a Module: Insert > Module

    Step 2: Ask SlackGPT to do your homework

    Next up we are going to ask SlackGPT to generate a Visual Basic script that will generate a presentation for us. This is mostly Prompt engineering.

    Wether you know or you don’t know your presentation out-line your prompt should probably start with something like this:

        Generate VBA script in PowerPoint that on execution generates slides.
        The Topic of the slide deck is: [The benefits of having ChatGPT do you work]
        The length of the slide deck is: [Minimum of 10 slides]
        
        Think like a C# developer that is trying to save his job by giving this presentation
        make sure to generate sub points on all the slides
    

    Run the script.

    Step 3: Style it

    All that is left is to style your slides, if you don’t have a house-style design you can use the Integrated feature of PowerPoint “Designer” that should be located on the Home Ribbon.


    1. If you don’t see the Developer “Ribbon” follow these steps:

      • Go to File > Options
      • Customize Ribbon
      • Main Tabs > Developer
      • Ok
