This branch of the repo will be actively maintained until the thesis is finished. After that it will be archived like the original from David Kovacs to serve as a template for future FHWN students searching for a ready to go LaTeX template.
This repository contains my master thesis proposal, thesis and the presentation. Please see the corresponding files.
- proposal.tex
- thesis.tex
- presentation.tex
- presentation-handout.tex (to be compiled after presentation.tex)
