description: Create data-driven presentation slides using React, Vite, and Recharts with Sentry branding. Use when asked to "create a presentation", "build slides", "make a deck", "create a data presentation", "build a Sentry presentation". Scaffolds a complete slide-based app with charts, animations, and single-file HTML output.

Sentry Presentation Builder

Create interactive, data-driven presentation slides using React + Vite + Recharts, styled with the Sentry design system and built as a single distributable HTML file.

Step 1: Gather Requirements

Ask the user: 1. What is the presentation topic? 2. How many slides (typically 5-8)? 3. What data/charts are needed? (time series, comparisons, diagrams, zone charts) 4. What is the narrative arc? (problem → solution, before → after, technical deep-dive)

Data Assessment (CRITICAL)

Before designing any slides, assess whether the source content contains **real quantitative data** (numbers, percentages, measurements, time series, costs, metrics). Only create Recharts visualizations for slides where real data exists. Do NOT fabricate, estimate, or invent data to fill charts.

• **Has real data** → use a Recharts chart (bar, area, line, etc.)
• **Has no data** → use text-based layouts: cards, tables, bullet columns, diagrams, or quote blocks. Do NOT create a chart with made-up numbers.

If the source content is purely qualitative (narrative, opinions, strategy, process descriptions), the presentation should use zero charts. Recharts and `Charts.jsx` should only be included in the project if at least one slide has real data to visualize.

Step 2: Scaffold the Project

Create the project structure:

├── package.json
├── vite.config.js
└── src/
    ├── main.jsx
    ├── App.jsx
    ├── App.css

  "type": "module",
  "scripts": { "dev": "vite", "build": "vite build", "preview": "vite preview" },
  "dependencies": { "react": "^18.3.1", "react-dom": "^18.3.1", "recharts": "^2.15.3" },
  "devDependencies": { "@vitejs/plugin-react": "^4.3.4", "vite": "^6.0.0", "vite-plugin-singlefile": "^2.3.0" }
}

vite.config.js

import { defineConfig } from 'vite'
import react from '@vitejs/plugin-react'
import { viteSingleFile } from 'vite-plugin-singlefile'

export default defineConfig({ plugins: [react(), viteSingleFile()] })

main.jsx

import React from 'react'
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom/client'
import App from './App'
import './App.css'

ReactDOM.createRoot(document.getElementById('root')).render(<App />)

Step 3: Build the Slide System

Read `references/design-system.md` for the complete Sentry color palette, typography, CSS variables, layout utilities, and animation system.

App.jsx Structure

Define slides as an array of functions returning JSX:

const SLIDES = [
  () => ( /* Slide 0: Title */ ),
  () => ( /* Slide 1: Context */ ),
  // ...
];

Each slide function returns a `<div className="slide-content">` with: 1. An `<h2>` heading 2. Optional subtitle paragraph 3. Main content (charts, cards, diagrams, tables) 4. Animation classes: `.anim`, `.d1`, `.d2`, `.d3` for staggered fade-in

Do NOT add category tag pills/badges above headings (e.g., "BACKGROUND", "EXPERIMENTS"). They look generic and add no value. Let the heading speak for itself.

Navigation

Implement keyboard navigation (ArrowRight/Space = next, ArrowLeft = prev) and a bottom nav overlay with prev/next buttons, dot indicators, and slide number. The nav has **no border or background** — it floats transparently. A small low-contrast Sentry glyph watermark sits fixed in the top-left corner of every slide.

function App() {
  const [cur, setCur] = useState(0);
  const go = useCallback((d) => setCur(c => Math.max(0, Math.min(SLIDES.length - 1, c + d))), []);

  useEffect(() => {
    const h = (e) => {
      if (e.target.tagName === 'INPUT') return;
      if (e.key === 'ArrowRight' || e.key === ' ') { e.preventDefault(); go(1); }
      if (e.key === 'ArrowLeft') { e.preventDefault(); go(-1); }
    };
    window.addEventListener('keydown', h);
    return () => window.removeEventListener('keydown', h);
  }, [go]);

  return (
    <>
      {cur > 0 && <div className="glyph-watermark"><SentryGlyph size={50} /><span className="watermark-title">TITLE</span></div>}
      <div className="progress" style={{ width: `${((cur + 1) / SLIDES.length) * 100}%` }} />
      {SLIDES.map((S, i) => (
        <div key={i} className={`slide ${i === cur ? 'active' : ''}`}>
          <div className={`slide-content${i === cur ? ' anim' : ''}`}>
            <S />
          </div>
        </div>
      ))}
      <Nav cur={cur} total={SLIDES.length} go={go} setCur={setCur} />
    </>
  );
}

Step 4: Create Charts (Only When Data Exists)

**IMPORTANT: Only create charts for slides backed by real, concrete data from the source content.** If a slide's content is qualitative (strategies, learnings, process descriptions, opinions), use text-based layouts instead (cards, tables, bullet lists, columns). Never invent numbers, fabricate percentages, or generate synthetic data to populate a chart. If you are unsure wheth
