In their own words
Deepin Boot Maker
Deepin Boot Maker is a free, open-source utility from the deepin Community for creating a Deepin boot disk. The workflow is to choose an ISO image, select a USB disk, start creating the disk, and complete the process. It is designed for Deepin installation ISOs and also works with Ubuntu live installation ISOs; ISO files can be added by dragging and dropping them. The official download directory lists a Windows executable and a macOS ZIP archive. On Linux, Deepin users can install the program from the repository with `sudo apt-get install deepin-boot-maker`; the README says the only binary release is currently from a Deepin OS ISO. The project uses the GPL-3.0-only license and links to its source code. For usage help, it lists a wiki, forum, Developer Center, and Matrix. The project encourages issue reports and contributions. No paid plans or usage limits are stated.
