Looks like Beamer (latex+beamer). An easy step to beamer is to use pandoc, which is what I use when I need to make a presentation. Though it's not as flexible as writing latex directly, it's pretty decent because with pandoc, your input is just markdown. Much (much!) easier on the fingers and on the eyes :) (Not sure how strict we are on "off-topic" stuff so I will stop here!)
