## What it is
The classic Marp desktop app, a simple Markdown presentation writer for creating slide decks. It has been discontinued since 2017 and the repository now only directs users to migrate to the actively maintained Marp Next ecosystem (Marp for VS Code and Marp CLI), warning of a known remote code execution vulnerability.

## Use cases
- write slide decks in markdown
- convert markdown to presentation slides
- export markdown slides to pdf
- create presentations without powerpoint
- live preview markdown slides

## When to choose
- you are researching the history of the Marp project
- you need to find migration guidance from classic Marp to Marp Next

## When to avoid
- you want to create presentations today - use Marp for VS Code or Marp CLI instead
- you need a maintained or secure tool - this app has a known remote code execution vulnerability
- you expect bug fixes or new features

- function: markdown, templating, pdf, developer-tools
