Minimal Theme

Clean, professional, versatile
The Minimal theme is pptx.dev's most versatile preset. Built on the Cool Horizon color scheme and Aptos typography, it strikes the right balance between modern and neutral — enough personality to feel intentional, not so much that it distracts.

Maximum contrast on dark — light text on a near-black background. Body copy highly legible.

Bullet points styled with accent color markers. Cool Horizon's first accent handles emphasis perfectly.

API Usage
Use the preset theme with a single field:
POST https://api.pptx.dev/v1/presentations
{
"theme": "minimal",
"narrative": "classic-story",
"topic": "Your topic here"
}Or reference the color and font schemes directly to mix and match:
POST https://api.pptx.dev/v1/presentations
{
"colorScheme": "cool-horizon",
"fontScheme": "aptos",
"narrative": "classic-story",
"topic": "Your topic here"
}Tip: passing colorScheme and fontScheme directly lets you create custom combinations beyond preset themes.
