python-pptx is a Python library for creating, reading, and updating PowerPoint (.pptx) files.
A typical use would be generating a PowerPoint presentation from dynamic content such as a database query, analytics output, or a JSON payload, perhaps in response to an HTTP request and downloading the generated PPTX file in response. It runs on any Python capable platform, including macOS and Linux, and does not require the PowerPoint application to be installed or licensed.
It can also be used to analyze PowerPoint files from a corpus, perhaps to extract search indexing text and images.
In can also be used to simply automate the production of a slide or two that would be tedious to get right by hand, which is how this all got started.
