I moved away from MS Windows a long while back and have ported everything EXCEPT presentations. I still use a friend’s laptop just for PowerPoint.
I have used LibreOffice Impress and it is quite poor in design and the templates are very unprofessional.
I have used LaTeX beamer a lot and I am now tired of fighting it to make simple transitions look good, quickly customise a slide, etc.
Are there alternatives that I can use which are libre friendly as well as user-friendly?
Pandoc with reveal.js is nice. I also use an asciidoc template with asciidoctor-pdf, but it’s a pdf output so no fancy animations or transitions.
I have a couple write ups about them:
