Marp: Markdown Presentation Ecosystem
With Marp, I use a PowerShell function I call marp-template[0] (I use PowerShell Core on Linux and MacOS) to create a markdown file to serve as a starting template for me.
Then I use Marp's docker image, in another PowerShell function named marp[1] to render the HTML (I like using the --html flag so I can have actual HTML in my markdown files).
This workflow results in me being able to create presentations very quickly.

Vim for presentation?
I like sent. You write in a text file, each paragraph being one slide. Idk how it handles gift but it supports images. It's very simple and limited in features, but if it fits your needs then it's as simple as it gets.

LPT: Powerpoint slides are supposed to be simple and brief. Nobody is going to read your wall of fancy text when you give your presentation.
This is why I love tools like Sent.
