How I built this template

I started from Achref Faidi's template. I didn't know how to use latex at first. So by observing the commands and what they produce helped me grasp it little by little and I used google to help me understand.

I organized the report into chapter files instead of having them all in one main .tex file.

When I wrote my report, I needed some additional features like colouring the table and mofidying the spacing some parts... With ChatGPT and google, I added the necessary packages to be able to use new commands.

Noramlly when you upload this report you will find only one warning that I couldn't remove but yeah we can't attain perfection. This is clean and functional and I hope it can help others.

If your report must be in french, I challenge you to modify the necessary scripts (Hint: google "how to change the language of latex document")

At first you will be overwhelmed with this template. My advice is to put the skeleton of the chapters and section. Then visualize what you want to write in each subsection and if you need figures or tables. If you can see the end then you can slowly build up the steps to reach it.
