LaTeX Beamer presentation template

A complete 16:9 Beamer deck for a talk, group meeting, or lecture: title slide, automatic outline, bullet overlays that reveal step by step, theorem-style blocks, a two-column slide, display math, and a booktabs results table. It uses the built-in Madrid theme, so there is nothing extra to install.

Who it's for

For presenting: slides you project or share as a PDF. For handouts or notes people read on their own, use the lecture notes template. For the paper behind the talk, use the research paper or conference paper template.

How to customize this template

  1. Change the title, subtitle, Your Name, and institute at the top. They fill the title slide and the footer of every slide.
  2. Each slide is one \begin{frame}{Title} … \end{frame} block. Copy a frame to add a slide.
  3. Reveal bullets one at a time with \item<2-> or \pause. Each step becomes its own PDF page, which is how Beamer animates.
  4. Swap the look with one line: try \usetheme{Boadilla}, CambridgeUS, or Warsaw, and \usecolortheme{dolphin}. For 4:3 slides, remove aspectratio=169.
  5. Beamer slides only make sense as a PDF, so the preview pane shows the compiled deck. Use Download PDF to present it full screen.

When it looks right, press Download PDF. To take the .tex to Overleaf or a local TeX install, choose Export → LaTeX source.
