DexCode is an open-source, AI-first slide authoring environment built for developers who want to create presentations without leaving their terminal. Instead of wrestling with drag-and-drop editors, you prompt an AI agent — Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, or Cursor — to generate slides from natural language commands. The tool reads project context automatically, so a request like "Create 5 slides for tomorrow's sprint review" pulls in relevant data from your codebase. Slides appear as MDX files that you can edit directly, and a local web server provides a live preview that updates on every save.

What makes DexCode stand out is how tightly it integrates with a developer's existing workflow. You can revise individual slides by typing commands like "Add an architecture diagram to slide 3" or "Make the summary slide more concise." The tool ships with over 100 built-in slide templates — charts, code blocks, dashboards, comparison tables, and even government-specific layouts. When you're done, you can present directly from the browser, export to PDF or PPTX, or share a live URL with your team using Cloudflare Tunnel. Everything is free and open source under the MIT License.

DexCode is ideal for software engineers, technical leads, and anyone who needs to create slide decks from code context. It's especially useful for sprint reviews, pitch decks, technical demos, and internal presentations where you want to keep your hands on the keyboard. If you already use AI coding assistants, this tool extends that same prompt-and-iterate workflow to slide creation — no separate app or account needed.
