Upgrade StorageCitePoint: An Experimental Zotero-Powered Citation Add-in for PowerPoint
Hi everyone,
I’ve been working on a small experimental tool called CitePoint:
https://github.com/digitalartificialint-cmd/CitePoint
CitePoint is a Windows PowerPoint add-in that connects to a local Zotero Desktop library and lets users insert Zotero-based citations directly into PowerPoint slides.
Current features:
Search Zotero items from PowerPoint
Select one or multiple sources
Filter by Zotero collections
Insert citations into the active slide
Switch between APA, Chicago author-date, and IEEE-style numeric citations
Generate slide-level numeric references
Convert numeric citations like [1,2,3] to superscript
Includes a Zotero companion add-on for local citation formatting support
The current release is here:
https://github.com/digitalartificialint-cmd/CitePoint/releases/tag/v0.1.24
This is not an official Zotero or Microsoft product. It is an early community prototype, currently focused on Windows PowerPoint and Zotero 8.x. I’m sharing it to get feedback from Zotero users and developers, especially on whether this approach makes sense and what would be needed to make it more robust.
Any feedback, suggestions, or technical criticism would be very welcome.
