✏️ Description:

The PageSpeed InSlides tool, which—as the name suggests (not a typo, think "PageSpeed, but in slides") —lifts the output from the PageSpeed Insights API and creates an interactive HTML5 slide deck for you, on the fly. The target audience is technical, for example, front-end engineers and webmasters, this is not meant as an introductory pitch deck. Also, the decks are designed for desktop, to be shown in full screen mode, ideally on a projector.

Please note: this is not an official Google product.
