Posterskill Academic Posters

This turns your Overleaf LaTeX paper into a print-ready conference poster as a single HTML file with a built-in drag-and-drop editor. Claude reads your paper source, extracts content into React cards, and generates a multi-column layout you can tweak in the browser by dragging dividers and swapping sections. It includes a programmatic API for layout automation via Playwright, which Claude uses internally to verify spacing. The workflow is iterative: Claude generates, you adjust visually, copy the config JSON back, and Claude updates the HTML. Honest take: the self-contained HTML approach is clever for portability, though you're still debugging paths and logo fetching. Best for researchers who want design control without touching LaTeX poster templates.
