Bento is a PowerPoint alternative packaged as a single HTML file: the editor, viewer and presenter live inside the document itself and it opens in any browser. Data sits in a readable JSON block and the file rewrites itself on save.

Useful for

Build a deck and send it as one file without the recipient installing anything
Edit slides through Claude Code, Cursor or Aider by rewriting the #bento-doc JSON block
Present with morph animations and built-in charts straight from the browser
