The Metropolis theme is also there now. Thanks @mgubi for adding that screenshot!
Best way to start customizing Beamer slides
@darcy - could it be possible to pin a post announcing tm-forge at the top of the forum? I think it would help if it is seen by all forum visitors.
@mgubi I saw you have some excellent slides entitled “The Guile of TeXmacs” on your homepage:

Maybe this could also be a good candidate for tm-forge?
Great! Awesome slides!
The colours, font and itemize bullets can be easily adapted. The footer is harder to do, as beamer screens are designed with an adaptive height. A table with fixed height would probably work to some extent.
The top bar (above the title) is difficult to do as well, as beamer documents currently don’t support sections. I’m not sure what a good interface for structuring slides into sections would look like.
It would be nice to more choices of beamer templates. At the moment, all the templates have the same structure.
I wonder if header and footers can be adapted to work from page to beamer style. As for the sequence of sections in the header, it should not impossible, one has to define a command to start a new section (which could be a variant of the title of the slide) and then collect the sections and compose the header. It is a nice exercise in macro writing.
