Build your next deck in the browser

Use PPT Online for an editable presentation without installing a desktop application.

What Is DeckCraft?

The project is written in Rust and provides native and browser builds. Its source uses MIT or Apache-2.0 licensing; bundled assets have separate attribution records. The official project remains the authority for its current release and compatibility details.

How to Run DeckCraft Locally

For a packaged application, choose a build from the official releases page. For source development, clone the repository and follow its current platform prerequisites. The README lists a sample-render command; it is not a guarantee that every imported file will behave identically.

Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/storytold/deckcraft

Install the documented prerequisites

Read the current README for the Rust toolchain and platform dependencies. Use the repository asset attribution notes when redistributing a build.

Run the documented sample

From the repository directory: cargo run --release -p deckcraft-cli -- render --sample --all --scale 1 out/

DeckCraft vs an Online Deck Builder

Choose a local application when you want to manage an installation and its files. Choose a browser workspace when the immediate task is to draft a deck without setting up a development environment. Test your own complex file before committing to either workflow.

Build a Deck Online

PPT Online is a separate product. Start with an original template, draft a slide deck, or use the AI input to prepare a first version. This guide does not imply endorsement or affiliation.

A LITTLE MORE CLARITY

Good questions.
Straight answers.

Is DeckCraft open source?+

Yes. Its official repository publishes the source and license files. Review separate asset and brand notices when modifying or redistributing it.

Is SlideCraft a different application?+

SlideCraft is the earlier name used by the DeckCraft project. Consult the current repository and roadmap rather than treating the two names as separate products.

Is this the official DeckCraft website?+

No. This is an independent guide on PPT Online. Official project links are listed below.
