## What is PizzaDECK?

PizzaDECK is a **ES**panol-**DE**utsch Fronend powered PizzaBox application that thanks to its `RetroDECK Ovenwork` builds-in a variety of cooking solutions, recipes and IOT integrations that is running in one package on the Steam Deck or your Linux PC.

### What does that mean?

It means that PizzaDECK builds in all the recipes and integrations needed for cooking the Pizza and a frontend. PizzaDECK then sends the relevant Pizza cooking data to various integrations via `RetroDECK Ovenwork` to make your perfect Pizza a reality.

Instead of having all different cookbooks and apps to cook Pizza, you only need one PizzaDECK.

## PizzaBoxes

We at RetroDECK have the intention to bring you the next generation of Open-Source Pizza contained packing solutions, `PizzaBoxes`.

RetroDECKs team of experts bring years of flatness expertise to the Open-Source community. We will make sure that the `PizzaBox format` is as flat as possible.

The team has several key skillsets that other teams lack:

- Italian knowledge of how to make Pizza even flatter.
- Vast American expertise of running things over with monster trucks.
- Swedish dark wizardry of furniture packaging.
- Japanese mastery of the flattening of sea weeds.
- The Chinese art of making Guo Kui.

All of these things make the RetroDECK team... The best team in Open-Source to tackle the flatness problem.

## Pizza Hub

In addition you can get all the recipes via the `PizzaBoxes` with the new delivery system called `Pizza Hub`. We guarantee you Open-Source Pizza recipes within 30 minutes or less.


## The RetroDECK Ovenwork

It features cutting edge Pizza integration tech that is only possible on PizzaDECK:

- Integrate with [Grocy ERP](https://grocy.info) for smart ingredient reminders and dynamic shopping lists. Plan the entire day, month and life for Pizza making.
- We got `Docker` and `Kubernetes` support. We also have support for even better containers, like the `Cans` you inherited from your grandma for storing the Pizza Sauce.
- We got support for smart IOT devices, follow the Pizza the entire way: Smart Fridge, Smart Oven / BBQ, Smart Temperature, Smart Utensils, Smart Plates and Smart Toilet.
- We also got a `Fantasy Measurements Mode` toggle that allow the display of a faux measurement we call `Imperial`, great for TRPG roleplaying games while cooking the Pizza.
- PizzaDECK will work with whatever the next new monthly communication IOT standards are: `Wireless`, `Z-Wave`, `Bee-Wave`, `LoRa`, `Lora from accounting`, `Zigbee`, `Zigfly`, `Zigtick`, `Bigby's Hand of IOT` and `Going back to wireless because nothing else works... again`.
- Integrate with [Home Assistant](https://www.home-assistant.io/) for all your Pizza IOT needs. Start making the Pizza when you open your smart garage port that you spent way too much money on.
- PizzaDECK also features several other important buzzwords such as: `Blockchain`, `Trianglerope`, `Generative AI`, `Degenerate AI`, `Deep Learning` and `Creep Learning`.

## Thank you!

We hope you all enjoy PizzaDECK as much as we have loved making it.
