Publish CTUthesis on ShareLaTex templates #25

Open breznak opened 8 years ago

breznak commented 8 years ago

I've recently discovered ShareLaTex as a convenient browser-based LaTex editor that allows:

collaboration (like google docs)
many templates (CV, slides, thesis,...)
WYSIWYG editor

And I'm opening this issue just to let you know that I've requested to add this project to the supported templates.

PS: If you register with my referrer link I'll get more collaborators: https://www.sharelatex.com?r=787975f5&rm=d&rs=b

Well, this has a serious drawback: The template on SL is never going to be updated unless a manual update by the SL stuff is requested. This means that we'll have the current not-really-best version around forever. But I mean, since I consider SL bad, I don't really care.

No WYSIWYG, as far as i know. Also, i am against distributing templates. Just my two cents.

Ok, I understand your concern and agree that the "installation"/cloning is pretty easy.

So the options are:

"easier" default template on SL that (probably someone outside of CTU) might discover and like; but will get outdated (unless action again requested)
things stay GH only, bleeding edge

I'm still inclining to offering a default template, as I can't imagine a student at CTU/FEE who couldn't clone a git repo, but the template is supposed to be university-wide, so maybe... But then again, SL is a marginal thing too. @tohecz you're the maintainer, so you decide ...

I think we found a nice compromise, I've mailed the SL staff about the out-dating concern and suggested that they setup automatic sync with this git repo. If they can do that there is no drawback nor maintenance effort in having the template.
