# Scatterbrain
> Post-it inspired: pastel sticky notes, Caveat handwriting, Shrikhand and Zilla Slab type stack.
A single self-contained HTML deck — typography, palette, decorative system,
and slide vocabulary are all tuned together. Mixing layouts across templates
breaks the system; stay inside this one.
## At a glance
- **Scheme:** light
- **Formality:** low
- **Density:** high
- **Slides in demo:** 10
## Best for
Anything that should feel like a designer's whiteboard: brainstorms, workshops, creative-agency credentials, design-thinking sessions, ideation pitches, art-direction reviews. Equally fun for any deck — including tech, research, or business — that wants to read as in-progress thinking rather than polished conclusions.
## Avoid for
Contexts that demand precision and institutional weight — the post-it sticky-note aesthetic intentionally reads as warm and unfinished.
## Workflow
1. **Clone `example.html`** into the user's workspace as the working file.
2. **Replace placeholder content** with the user's real headlines, body copy,
numbers, names, dates, and section labels. Match existing dimensions when
swapping image placeholders.
3. **Preserve the design system.** Never substitute fonts, recolor the palette,
restructure the layout grid, or strip decorative elements (corner brackets,
paper grain, geometric shapes, illustrated SVGs). They are part of the
identity.
4. **Adjust deck length by duplicating layouts.** If the user has more content
than the demo holds, duplicate an existing slide of the most appropriate
layout. If less, drop slides from the bottom. Update page-number labels.
5. **Designing missing layouts:** if a slide needs a layout the template
doesn't have, design it from scratch using the same fonts, palette,
decorative vocabulary, spacing rhythm, and component grammar — never bail
to a different template.
6. **Keep the navigation runtime as shipped.** If the deck ships an
`assets/deck-stage.js` or inline keyboard handler, leave it intact.
