Description

good first issue

Issue Description:
Deadlines can be created from the Home page by selecting the option to add a deadline. After entering the deadline description and providing the date and time for both deadline slots, submitting the form results in a NameError related to the Deadline model.

The deadline creation functionality should be updated so that a deadline can be successfully created and saved without triggering the NameError.

Expected Behavior:
After completing the deadline form and submitting it, the deadline should be saved successfully and displayed without any errors.
