LaTeX template that I use as a starting point for all my documents. It is structured in multiple files ordered numerically. To compile simply run latexmk.

There is no need to use flakes, this template can be used with any working LaTeX installation, but flakes allow for build reproducibility and a standardized environment across all collaborators. This means that all the LaTeX dependencies, pygmentize and all other dependencies are managed with nix, allowing to compile the document without working about managing the dependencies in different environments.

This makes it very easy to integrate the document deployment with github actions, any other CI or creating containers to build the document. Using, binary caches with cachix can speed up the compilation significantly by caching all LaTeX packages.

To build the current in the current directory run:

nix build

Or even compile the document without even cloning it before hand with:

nix build github:leixb/latex-template

To get a shell with all the dependencies available:

nix develop

Note that you can use direnv to have a controlled development environment for the document integrated with your shell.

(All this commands are using nix 2.4 with flake support)
