Thesis LaTeX Template

This $\LaTeX$ template can be used for anything STEM related. An example can be found here.

This works for the current version of TeXstudio in combination with MiKTeX. It is recommended to use the LuaLaTeX compiler.

thesis.tex is the main file which has to be executed. This imports your different sections/chapters, the title page, the declaration of authorship and all of the custom packages of doc_cfg.tex.

Notable Packages:

pdfpages to simplify the inclusion of external multi-page PDF documents
tikz & tikz-3dplot to create (complex) graphics/drawings with 3D functionality
libertinus which is a nice font, there are many fonts available
fancyhdr for fancy headers, which for example can show the sections/chapters of your thesis
mathtools is based on amsmath and fixes various deficiencies of amsmath

Changed Settings:

The automatic indentation when starting a new line has been removed
Subsections until depth five will be enumerated
Up to five subsections will be listed in the table of contents

Custom Colors:

These are only a few of the new custom colors:

dkgreen dark green
deepgreen deep green
deepblue deep blue
lava dark red/orange, will be currently used for hyperlinks

Code:

Code is used with lstlisting where the default language is Python. This can be changed when you give different parameters. It has a light and a dark theme.

New Commands:

new \bar and \tild commands because the bar/tilde were weirdly offset in math mode
