The short version

What happened to DeckDeckGo?

DeckDeckGo is no longer maintained. Its website now says the project is deprecated, its GitHub repository was archived on 6 Feb 2024, and its npm packages are marked as no longer supported.

DeckDeckGo was an open-source web editor for presentations. The deckdeckgo.com page is still up with a short farewell note ("It has been a fun ride but DeckDeckGo is now deprecated"), and the source code stays on GitHub as a read-only archive. The page does not say whether the hosted editor at app.deckdeckgo.com still works, so do not rely on it for anything you need to keep.

Bottom line: for a new deck, use a maintained tool such as Google Slides, Pitch or Canva. If you still have decks in DeckDeckGo, copy the content out now.
