The Aspose.Slides.LowCode namespace provides simplified methods for common presentation operations, reducing boilerplate code while maintaining full functionality.

using Aspose.Slides;
using Aspose.Slides.LowCode;

// Convert presentation to HTML5
using (var presentation = new Presentation("presentation.pptx"))
{
    Convert.ToHtml(presentation, "output.html");
}

Complete Example 

using Aspose.Slides;
using Aspose.Slides.LowCode;

// Convert presentation to HTML5
using (var presentation = new Presentation("presentation.pptx"))

// Advanced conversion with options
using (var presentation = new Presentation("input.pptx"))
{
    // Configure export options as needed
    var options = new PdfOptions();
    
    // Use LowCode method with options
    presentation.Save("output.pdf", SaveFormat.Pdf, options);
}

Troubleshooting

Issue: File not found errors
Solution: Ensure file paths are correct and files exist
