Keep the evidence with the slide

A recommendation is more useful when its source travels with it.

OPF supports references, citation markers and inline footnotes. The reference is stored once; slides can cite it where the claim appears. Images, charts and tables can also carry captions.

{
  "references": [
    {
      "id": "interviews",
      "text": "Illustrative customer interviews."
    }
  ],
  "slides": [
    {
      "title": "Simplify onboarding",
      "text": [
        {
          "text": "Customers asked for fewer setup steps.",
          "cite": "interviews"
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

References are numbered across the deck. Validation catches a citation that points to a missing reference. It checks the connection, not whether the source proves the claim.

Why it matters: reviewers can trace an assertion without searching through an email thread. The next person editing the deck keeps the context that shaped the recommendation.
