taleem-slides

taleem-slides is the renderer in the Taleem system.

Its only responsibility is to convert validated slide data into HTML.

What the Renderer Does

taleem-slides takes:

• a deck that conforms to Schema v1
• a slide type
• structured data for that slide

And produces:

• static HTML

That is all.

What the Renderer Does Not Do

taleem-slides does not:

• know about time
• know about slide order
• manage playback
• handle user input
• inspect the DOM
• modify rendered output after creation

It does not place anything into the page.

Stateless by Design

The renderer is stateless.

Given the same input data, it always produces the same HTML.

There is no internal memory, no hidden configuration, and no runtime behavior.

One-Way Responsibility

taleem-slides sits between the schema and the engines.

Data flows in. HTML flows out.

Nothing flows back.

Why This Matters

By keeping rendering pure:

• slides are deterministic
• rendering is testable
• engines remain simple

Any system that needs HTML slides can rely on the renderer without understanding the schema itself.

The Boundary

If a feature requires:

• time
• interaction
• state

It does not belong in taleem-slides.

Put it in an engine or UI instead.
