Your AETHOS Day Zero PPT, built to the round’s rules.

Together We Solve gives no slide template for this round. Paste your GitHub repo or drop in your notes, and devreport writes 9 slides from what the rules ask for in a few minutes. You submit the PDF.

The cover of an example deck in the Blueprint theme (a student’s CIFAR-10 coursework, not this event’s slides)
No repo? Start from notes

Free to try. 15 free credits on sign‑up (enough for your first deck). No card.

  • 9 slides from the round’s written rules
  • Charts and diagrams from your own files
  • Usually three to five minutes, a little longer for a big repo

The Blueprint theme, on an example deck

There is no official AETHOS Day Zero template, so this is a student’s CIFAR-10 coursework deck in devreport’s Blueprint theme, which is why it has 10 pages. Your deck follows the 9 slides below, in that order, and is written from your own repo and notes.

No template is out yet, and Day Zero asks teams to engineer the foundations of a new civilization, so the page starts you on Blueprint: white linework on blueprint blue with a drawing’s title block, made for hardware and systems design. Switch to any other theme before or after the build.

How it works

  1. 1Start from the button

    The 9-slide AETHOS Day Zero plan comes picked, in the Blueprint theme. (Or start a deck, choose Slides and pick it under “Follow a template”.)

  2. 2Give it your material

    The problem statement, your idea notes with the team details the cover asks for, and your repo or screenshots if you have them.

  3. 3Answer its questions

    It asks for any cover detail your notes don’t have, and what it needs to know about the idea.

  4. 4Check it and submit the PDF

    Fix a word on the page yourself or ask for changes, then download the PDF.

Not an official template. Together We Solve publishes no slide template for this round yet. The listing says further submission guidelines and templates go to registered participants. The slides below follow the round’s written rules on its page, and the look is devreport’s Blueprint theme. devreport is not affiliated with AETHOS Day Zero or Together We Solve; the round’s rules decide what you may submit.

Questions

Is this the official AETHOS Day Zero template?

No. Together We Solve hasn’t published a slide template for this round, so there is none to rebuild. The 9 slides here follow the round’s written rules, and the look is devreport’s Blueprint theme. devreport is not affiliated with AETHOS Day Zero or Together We Solve.

What if the organisers send a template or format later?

The listing says further submission guidelines and templates go to registered participants. If you get a .pptx, upload it under “Follow a template” when you start the deck and it follows that file’s slides and headings. For a deck you have already made, ask for the changes the format needs.

Can I submit the devreport PDF?

The round asks for the project presentation, with technical documentation, the source code repository, a prototype or proof of concept, and a demo video where it applies. The form also asks for your Civilization Pillar (Ignis, Nexus, Atlas, Vita, Aether, Sapientia, Aegis or Nova). Check the organiser’s rules when in doubt.

We only have an idea, no code yet. Does it still work?

Yes. A repo is optional. Upload the problem statement, your notes on the idea and any data or screenshots, and it writes the slides from those. It won’t invent research, users or results you don’t give it.

Can I fix things myself before submitting?

Yes. Click any text on a slide to change it, move or resize charts and pictures, or ask for a change in plain words. Hand edits are free.

How long does it take?

Usually three to five minutes, a little longer for a big repo, plus the time you take to answer its questions.

What does it cost?

New accounts get 15 free credits. A deck costs 10 credits and each change you ask for afterwards costs 1; editing text on the page yourself and switching themes are free. A build that fails gives its credits back.
