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.

2.**Compile the style files** by running `make sty` inside the downloaded
directory. (Or run LaTeX directly on `source/metropolistheme.ins`.)
3.**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.
4.**Use the theme for your presentation** by declaring `\usetheme{m}` in
