Hikmah Quarto templates

ḥikmah (حكمة): Arabic; n. wisdom; cf. House of Wisdom

I’ve been using custom LaTeX templates (based in part on Kieran Healy’s template) for years. With the advent of Quarto, I decided to clean up my templates, simplify them, and Quarto-ify them. Yay.

  • Nice fancy PDF (hikmah-pdf)
  • Manuscripty double-spaced PDF (hikmah-manuscript-pdf)
  • Manuscripty double-spaced Word (hikmah-manuscript-docx)
  • Manuscripty double-spaced OpenDocument (hikmah-manuscript-pdf)
  • Reviewer response memo (hikmah-response-typst)

This repository is really meant as an example of how to create Quarto templates and formats. Fork it, copy it, and adjust it all you want! Use it as a way to learn how to make your own templates.

Installation

Run this command to install the templates in your Quarto project:

quarto add andrewheiss/hikmah-academic-quarto
