A Bento deck carries its own viewer, presenter, and editor inside the document — open it in any browser, edit it, present it, send it. The person you send it to needs nothing: the file is the software. Try it in 10 seconds: open bento.page/slides — that's the entire app, running on a starter deck that doubles as the feature tour. Or grab a designed template from the gallery and make it yours. Download the app: grab the single Bento Slides.bento.html from the GitHub Releases page or straight from bento.page ( 560 KB, no account, no installer).
