Bauhaus Primary (hps-bauhaus)
Single-theme deck plugin ported from the bauhaus theme of the upstream
MIT-licensed lewislulu/html-ppt-skill
(36 themes × 31 layouts × 27 animations). This plugin locks one skin:
design-history geometric modernism — the 1919–1933 Dessau language of
square/triangle/circle, the three primaries on an aged paper ground, and
typography that behaves like a poster.
Start from example.html. Replace content only. Never rewrite the design
system or the runtime script. Never introduce a color or font outside the
token sheet below.

Hard rules derived from the sheet:
- The three-band gradient (
--grad) has hard stops — it is a flag, not a blend. Use it only on.gradient-texthero words,.tri-band, and.divider-accent. Never use soft multi-stop gradients. - All chrome is ink:
2px solid #111borders on cards, pills, chart bars, checkboxes;3pxstrokes inside SVG. - Shadows are hard offsets (
4px 4px 0 #111,8px 8px 0 #111). Blurredrgbadrop shadows are forbidden. border-radiusis0on every element except the geometric circle device (border-radius:50%).
Typography
- Display (
.h1 .h2 .stat-big .quote .section-num .kpi .num):Archivo Black, weight 400 (the face is already black — never fake-bold), uppercase, letter-spacing-.03em. - Body (
.lede, card copy, lists):Space Grotesk, weights 300–700. - Mono (step counters, theme chip, code):
JetBrains Mono. - No serif, no slab, no handwriting, no brush — those belong to sibling
themes (
editorial-serif,peoples-platform), not this one. - Google Fonts via
@importis the only allowed remote resource.
Signature devices (keep these; they are the style)
- Kandinsky mark: inline SVG of red square + yellow triangle + blue circle, 3px ink strokes — on the cover and the closer.
- Outlined section numerals:
.section-numrendered stroke-only via-webkit-text-stroke:3px var(--text-1)with transparent fill. - Primary top rules:
.card-accent / .card-accent-2 / .card-accent-3give cards an 8px red/yellow/blue top border; rotate the three primaries across a grid rather than repeating one. - Tri-band:
.tri-bandand.divider-accentare ink-bordered strips of the hard three-band gradient. - Square checkboxes:
.check li::beforeis a yellow ink-bordered square with an ink check stroke. - Geo strip:
.geo-square / .geo-triangle / .geo-circlerepeat the square/triangle/circle motif as a footer ornament.
Layout system (shared upstream catalog, 31 layouts)
The slide scaffold and class vocabulary come from the upstream html-ppt
system. Master categories (compose cover → toc → section-divider → content pages → closer):
| group | layouts |
|---|---|
| Openers & transitions | cover toc section-divider |
| Text-centric | bullets two-column three-column big-quote |
| Numbers & data | stat-highlight kpi-grid table chart-bar chart-line chart-pie chart-radar |
| Code & terminal | code diff terminal |
| Diagrams & flows | flow-diagram arch-diagram process-steps mindmap |
| Plans & comparisons | timeline roadmap gantt comparison pros-cons todo-checklist |
| Visuals | image-hero image-grid |
| Closers | cta thanks |
The seed demonstrates 10 of them: cover, toc, section-divider, two-column, kpi-grid, stat-highlight, chart-bar, process-steps, big-quote, thanks. Charts are always pure CSS blocks or inline SVG with primary fills and ink strokes — never Chart.js or any external library. "Images" are geometric SVG compositions; no photos, no external image hosts.
Page structure & runtime contract
- One self-contained HTML file: inline
<style>+ inline<script>, zero build, zero external JS/CSS (Google Fonts@importexcepted). - Every page is
<section class="slide" data-title="...">inside<div class="deck" id="deck">— a horizontal scroll-snap strip, each slide exactly100vw × 100vh(flex:0 0 100vw), 16:9 / 1280×720 baseline withclamp()type scales, padding72px 96px. One screen per slide; no internal vertical scrolling. - Fixed chrome:
.deck-header(deck name + theme chip),.deck-footer(attribution +N / totalcounter),.progress-bar(ink-topped red fill). - Keyboard:
←→SpacePageUpPageDownHomeEndnavigate;#/N(1-based) hash deep-links viahistory.replaceStatein try/catch (srcdoc-safe). The script dedupes dual window/document capture-phase key listeners by Event identity and auto-focuses<body>— these solve real iframe-host bugs; keep the script verbatim. - Speaker notes: one hidden
<div class="notes">…</div>per slide, 1–3 sentences. - Animations: restrained upstream subset —
anim-rise-inon the hero,anim-fade-upon quotes,anim-stagger-liston grids. At most one hero animation plus one stagger per slide.
Authoring checklist
- Copy
example.html; keep all<style>blocks and the<script>verbatim. - Replace the 10 demo slides with the planned layout sequence; the script
recomputes the
N / totalcounter automatically. - Real content, real numbers — no lorem ipsum, no placeholder images.
- Rotate the three primaries deliberately (red = emphasis, yellow = warm support, blue = structure); large areas stay canvas + ink.
- Verify: arrows + Space navigate,
#/5deep-links, no slide overflows vertically, every stroke is #111, every radius is 0.

Use when the user asks to "build a win-back campaign", "re-engage lapsed subscribers", "run a re-permission / re-consent sweep", or "sunset my dead list"; produces a closed-loop reactivation program — a lapsed-cohort definition, a staged offer ladder, a re-consent (re-permission) capture step, and a sunset-confirm / suppression rule.
