I built a dedicated editor around that single job. Slides sit side by side on one multi-page canvas, so an image can span two slides and line up perfectly. Drag and drop, cropping, snap guides, a grid, zoom and undo/redo cover the editing; Instagram's 4:5, 1:1 and 1.91:1 ratios are built in. Export splits the canvas into one JPEG per slide.
Work is never lost: projects autosave locally, can be exported as a native .CMF file, and can be saved to the cloud through Supabase with a login. It is a Progressive Web App, so it installs on desktop or phone and works offline.
