pip install pdoc3
pdoc --html [-o <output_dir>] <python_script_or_module_path> # default output directory of "html" is `./html`

install and use pandoc, on its homepage we find some slideshow backends like reveal.js, dzslides, s5, slideous and slidy (alternative to microsoft powerpoint, may help rendering video, or let’s use libreoffice instead? or some dedicated video editing library like moviepy)

# let's convert the html version of
pandoc -o <output_docx_filename> <input_html_path>

remove unwanted parts from html (beautifulsoup), and split index from main content (split and concat with docxcompose)

for composing docx from hand, use python-docx. for template based docx generating, use docxtpl

to insert page break into converted docx, there are two ways (maybe):

1. change css in the original html code

2. insert page break while concatenating
