tufte-latex VS mtheme

You might want to check an Edward Tufte - inspired LaTex class: https://tufte-latex.github.io/tufte-latex/

in previous posts in this subreddit i got rec'ed this https://github.com/Tufte-LaTeX/tufte-latex however im struggling to get started with creating documents with it, not really understanding how it works to get the document classs set up etc. so can anyone give me some help, once i get the first steps it will probably be easier then

--- PS: I know that that tufte-latex already exists, but I really wanted to try to create the perfect thing for me, while learning a lot about LaTeX.

The thesis style is based on https://github.com/Tufte-LaTeX/tufte-latex. My preamble is a mess but if you email me I can send you a copy. :D

Check out metropolis, with example slides here.

Slightly off-topic question: any suggestions for modern presentation LaTeX themes (besides Metropolis, https://github.com/matze/mtheme)?

mtheme

I don't use beamer often enough to have a favorite. I like mtheme though

I know Metropolis is a common example of a decent Beamer template, but there are other Beamer examples that look good and just aren't as nicely packaged for use. My current favorite is here: https://github.com/mossr/julia-tufte-beamer

A very popular template is mtheme. Here's a demo.

The slides seems to be based on the Metropolis theme. I have never used to display code so I don't know if it includes the highlighting on the code snippets or you need to build it from there.

Most of these presentations are created with beamer and its default themes, although beamer is very handy, these themes are a little bit old-fashioned. We can use modern custom themes like metropolis:
