The suite introduces three new file formats—Hdoc, Hslide, and Hss—which are compressed JSON files, and supports basic features like tables, images, and text effects, though compatibility with the WebPositive browser remains experimental and work-in-progress. The developer recommends using more advanced browsers like Falkon for full functionality and is seeking user feedback and testing to improve the software.", "body_md": "Haiku basic is basically google doc, spreadsheet and slide but haiku edition so they are portable HTML along with a light blue engine port and there is a bit complexity, but easy to learn system for anyone with 3 new file format aka Hdoc,Hslide and one hss\nWelcome to HaikuDocs Haiku doc support basic feature like table, import image, clean and basic type effect with coming soon feature like PDF,DOCX support and color feature which is a bit broken in Webpositive so everything is still W.I.P\nWelcome to HaikuSlides, this is basically google slide and PowerPoint but scaled down to support more Webpositive and along with this it support basic presentation feature and this should allow for Basic presentation\nWelcome to Haiku Spreadsheet, allow for basic spreadsheet feature and for a easy to learn system, allowing for other feature to work properly while still being in KB\nSo this was mainly build by me, ai helped with import feature and I will be using open source web applications to add on to these as these are pretty well made, i will recommend using falkon or a more advanced browser as they support most of these feature offered by Haiku basic bundles, webpositive is a bit experimental everything work but I need more time to fix a lot of things and add a lot more things make sure everything work coherently on webpositive but I would not recommend using these as they are more undeveloped compared to Linux workspace or window workspace\nOverall I need feedback for this and I need people testing it for me, and giving me feedback but overall thank you for viewing this.\nOne last thing Hdoc,Hslide and hss are json compressed into a format meant to run on these, future plan for Haiku Docs are ready\nWelcome to Haiku basic friend and make sure to enjoy you’re stay", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/welcome-to-haiku-basic-haiku-docs-haiku-slide-and-haiku-sheets", "canonical_source": "https://discuss.haiku-os.org/t/welcome-to-haiku-basic-haiku-docs-haiku-slide-and-haiku-sheets/19189#post_7", "published_at": "2026-05-21 14:24:47+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-05-21 14:37:32.603545+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["products", "open-source", "developer-tools"], "entities": ["Haiku Docs", "Haiku Slides", "Haiku Spreadsheet", "Webpositive", "Falkon", "Google Docs", "Google Slides", "PowerPoint"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/welcome-to-haiku-basic-haiku-docs-haiku-slide-and-haiku-sheets", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/welcome-to-haiku-basic-haiku-docs-haiku-slide-and-haiku-sheets.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/welcome-to-haiku-basic-haiku-docs-haiku-slide-and-haiku-sheets.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/welcome-to-haiku-basic-haiku-docs-haiku-slide-and-haiku-sheets.jsonld"}}
