This repository provides a student-maintained and improved version of the so far available FEIF document template. The template got reworked from the ground up, improving the author's experience and providing a cleaner interface to begin with.
While being a template, the project provides some useful commands and allows the user to further customize and extend it.
You can find an example document based on this template (including a small overview of features) over on the example branch.
⚠️ INFO: The template is set up to only support German (despite this README and the source code being commented and written in English).
The build-pipeline associated to this project isn't tailored to an IDE like Overleaf. It can easily be run and built with whatever tool you prefer for writing lots of text.
If you want to build the template in your terminal (which I highly recommend, cause it's easier than getting an IDE to work, at least from my experience), you need the following programs installed on your system:
Due to most distributions having outdated versions of texlive in their repositories, you are encouraged to download the texlive package as discribed over on the official website.
Installing programs for development on Windows can get annoying rather quickly. For this reason, I recommend using a package manager for Windows, namely scoop. We will only use it for one package, but having it on your system can't hurt.
To install make with scoop, run the following commands in your
terminal:
scoop bucket add main
scoop install makeInstall the complete TeXLive suite from https://tug.org/texlive/windows.html#install.
Compiling your document from scratch is as easy as running the following in your terminal.
make allIf you just want to rebuild the document and you haven't changed the content of index files
in Verzeichnisse/, call make without any arguments.
To remove temporary files and indices used during compilation, run:
make clean
