Terminal Mono๏ผ็ญๅฎฝ็ป็ซฏ๏ผ
A locked, single-theme deck plugin derived from the MIT-licensed
nicobailon/visual-explainer
slide-deck template, restyled with the Terminal Mono aesthetic from its
references/slide-patterns.md. Developer-native and typographically strict:
near-black ground, monospace everything, one green voice, a faint dot grid.
Zero skeuomorphism, zero effects. No $ prompts, no red/yellow/green
window chrome, no CRT scanlines, no vignettes, no glows. This theme stands on
typographic discipline and the dot-grid texture alone. (The skeuomorphic
"terminal theater" look belongs to a different plugin โ do not drift there.)
Start from example.html in this plugin folder. It is the proven seed: copy
its :root tokens (both themes), deck/slide CSS, dot-grid treatment, and the
entire SlideEngine script verbatim, then replace only the slide content. Do not
rewrite the design system, and do not introduce any color or font outside this
spec.
Design tokens (locked โ list verbatim in :root)
Dark is the default theme; light mode switches automatically via
prefers-color-scheme: light. Both blocks are part of the locked spec โ
dual-theme support is the visual-explainer family signature and must ship in
every deck.

Typography (locked)
- One typeface for everything: Geist Mono 400/500/600/700 from Google
Fonts (
https://fonts.googleapis.com/css2?family=Geist+Mono:wght@400;500;600;700&display=swap). Fallback stack'SF Mono', Consolas, monospace. No second typeface, ever. - Titles are large weight-400 mono, never bold display. Display
clamp(36px, 7vw, 88px)weight 400 letter-spacing -2px; headingsclamp(24px, 4vw, 42px)weight 400 letter-spacing -1px. - Labels/eyebrows: 10-13px, weight 600, uppercase, letter-spacing 1.5-2px,
accent color. Subtitles: uppercase mono in
--text-dim. - Body and bullets: 15-20px, line-height ~1.6,
--text-dim. - Numbers use
font-variant-numeric: tabular-nums.
Signature devices (locked)
- Dot grid on every slide:
background-image: radial-gradient(var(--dot) 1px, transparent 1px); background-size: 24px 24px;This replaces the radial accent glows other family themes use โ no glows here. - Hairlines, not shadows: 1px borders in
--border/--border-bright. No box-shadows, no blurs (except the nav-dots backdrop blur from the seed). - Square geometry: border-radius 0-2px everywhere; bullet ticks are 7px
squares in
--accent(no round dots); deck dots are squares. - Corner bracket decor (title/closing slides only): two 1.5px accent lines at ~0.25 opacity forming an L in a corner, as inline SVG.
- Section divider numbers: giant mono numerals (up to 260px), weight 400, accent color at 0.05 opacity, centered behind the heading.
Deck engine & navigation (keep verbatim from the seed)
.deckis a100dvhscroll-snap container; each page is one<section class="slide">(also100dvh,scroll-snap-align: start).- SlideEngine (plain JS, no dependencies) builds the chrome: 2px accent
progress bar, square dot rail (right, backdrop-blurred),
n / Ncounter, fading hints. Keyboardโ/โ,โ/โ,Space,PageUp/PageDown,Home/End; touch swipe (50px threshold); IntersectionObserver toggles.visiblefor entrance reveals. - Hash routing: current slide mirrored to
#/<n>viahistory.replaceState; deep links restore on load andhashchange. - Reveals:
.revealchildren stagger in at 0.1s steps when the slide gains.visible; animate only opacity/transform;prefers-reduced-motiondisables all of it.
Layout masters (all present in example.html โ compose from these)
- Title โ centered; corner brackets; uppercase eyebrow, accent display title, uppercase sub-line.
- Section divider โ giant ghost numeral behind heading + subtitle.
- Content โ 3fr/2fr grid: label + heading + square-tick bullets left, restrained line-art SVG aside right (1px strokes, accent, low opacity).
- Split before/after โ two full-height panels (
--surface/--surface2), 1px--border-brightdivider; "before" label in--text-dim, "after" label in--accent. - Diagram โ pure CSS/SVG pipeline:
.pipe-nodeboxes (1px hairline, mono name + uppercase meta) joined by 1px connector lines with CSS-triangle arrowheads and tiny uppercase edge labels; accent-bordered nodes mark emphasis; legend row below. Never mermaid, never any external JS. - Dashboard โ KPI card grid: big tabular-nums value (accent or text), uppercase label, dim trend line.
- Table โ hairline-framed table; uppercase mono headers on
--surface2, zebra rows, accent-tint hover, inlinecodechips in--accent-dim. - Code โ
--code-bgblock with accent filename tab;.hlaccent and.cmdim spans for highlighting (code stays dark in both themes). - Quote โ centered; an oversized
>glyph in accent at 0.08 opacity as the quote mark (no curly serif quotes), upright mono blockquote, uppercase cite. - Closing โ left-aligned display heading with one accent
<em>word, top hairline, corner bracket, uppercase next-steps sub-line.
Hard rules
- Single self-contained HTML file: all CSS and JS inline; only the Google Fonts stylesheet may be external. No Chart.js, no mermaid, no CDN scripts, no remote images; icons and diagram art are inline SVG or pure CSS.
- Default 8-11 slides for a standard deck; honor the requested slide count when the user picks one. Split content into more slides instead of shrinking type or letting a slide scroll.
- Only the spec colors: the two greens (
#50fa7bdark /#0d7a3elight), the listed surfaces and text tones. No red/blue/yellow semantic colors โ express "before/risk/off" with--text-dimand "after/win/on" with--accent. - Only Geist Mono. Bold weights (600/700) are reserved for labels and small emphasis, never for titles.
- Keep both theme token blocks; never hard-code a themed color where a token exists.
- Start from
example.html; replace content only โ never redesign the theme.
