IMPORTANT NOTICES FOR VERSION 1.0
title format
values have been restructured. Please refer to the
manual.Metropolis is a simple, modern Beamer theme suitable for anyone to use. It tries to minimize noise and maximize space for content; the only visual flourish it offers is an (optional) progress bar added to each slide. The core design principles of the theme were described in a blog post here.
Not convinced? Have a look at the demo slides.
Installing Metropolis from source, like any Beamer theme, involves four easy steps:
Download the source with a git clone
of the Metropolis repository or as a zip archive of the latest development version.
Compile the style files by running make sty
inside the downloaded
directory. (Or run LaTeX directly on source/metropolistheme.ins
.)
Move the resulting *.sty
files to the folder containing your
presentation. To use Metropolis with many presentations, run make install
or move the *.sty
files to a folder in your TeX path instead (might require
sudo
rights).
Use the theme for your presentation by declaring \usetheme{metropolis}
in
the preamble of your Beamer document.
The following code shows a minimal example of a Beamer presentation using Metropolis.
