# Resources & presentations on a topic card

> Open any card to attach what you'll teach with: docs and files, an embedded Canva or Google Slides link, or a full presentation generated from the topic — which you can present full-screen right there.

A topic isn't just a title — it's everything you bring to that class. Click a card to open its detail panel, where a resource hub keeps the deck, the handout, the reference link, and the recording all in one place, attached to the exact topic they belong to.

*One card holds its schedule, a note, and a hub of resources — including a deck you can present.*

## Generate a presentation from a topic

Click Generate a presentation on a card and the platform's AI deck builder creates a slide deck from the topic's title and description (plus the board's purpose as context). It runs in the background — the card shows 'generating…' — and when it's ready you get a Present button that opens the deck full-screen, right from the board. No switching tools mid-class.

## Embed Canva, Slides, Gamma, Figma, or Loom

Already made a deck elsewhere? Paste its share link into the Embed field and it's attached as a live embed — Canva, Gamma, Google Slides, Figma, and Loom are all recognized and rendered inline when you open it, so you present without leaving the tracker.

```text
Open a card → Resources →
  [ Generate a presentation ]   ← AI builds a deck, then Present
  Paste a Canva / Slides link   ← embedded + presentable
  Any link (URL)                ← reference material
  Upload file                   ← PDF, image, handout
  Attach a Doc                  ← from your Docs
```

## Docs, files, and links

The same hub attaches an existing Doc from your workspace, uploads a file (a PDF worksheet, an image, a handout), or pins any URL as a reference. The card shows a count of everything attached, so at a glance you know which topics are prepped and which still need materials.

## Link the class it was taught in

When you teach a topic live, link the card to that live class from the card's 'Taught in' picker. It ties your record together — the topic, the date, and the session (with its recording) all in one place — so months later you can see exactly when and how something was covered.

> **Note:** Uploads go to your own storage, the same place course files live. Generated decks are saved like any other presentation in your workspace, so they're reusable beyond the tracker.
