About Deckset
What is Deckset?
Deckset is a macOS and iOS app that converts Markdown text into presentation slides. You write in plain Markdown, choose a theme, and Deckset generates a slide deck instantly—no dragging slides or formatting required.
Who is it for?
It is built for developers, writers, and anyone who prefers writing over manual slide design. It is ideal for tech talks, internal reports, or quick updates. It is NOT for users who need pixel-perfect, image-heavy designs or complex animations—those are better served by PowerPoint, Keynote, or Google Slides.
How it works
Write your content in a .md file, open it in Deckset, pick a theme (built-in), and your slides render live. You can export to PDF or present directly. It works offline and syncs via iCloud between macOS and iOS (iPadOS/iPhoneOS 17.0+). Requires macOS Catalina (10.15) or newer.
Key features
- Markdown-to-Slides — Write in Markdown; slides auto-generate from headings, lists, and code blocks.
- Professional Themes — Choose from multiple built-in themes; no custom CSS needed.
- Live Preview — See your slides update as you edit the Markdown file.
- Export & Present — Export to PDF or present directly from the app with presenter notes.
- iCloud Sync — Seamlessly sync presentations between your Mac and iOS devices.
- Code Highlighting — Code blocks are syntax-highlighted out of the box for technical talks.
