What this is
This is a template designed to ease the workflow when writing documents for the Hochschule Hannover. It is intended to be used in all sophisticated
works, from lab-reports to masters thesis's.
The project provides custom document-classes caring the HsH- prefix as well as support files. These classes extend the well known KOMA-script
classes and customize them them with specific configurations, presets and provide commonly needed features.
Provided classes are:
HsH-article
HsH-report
HsH-book (planed)
HsH-standaloneVersion: 1.1
Date: 21.04.2021

License
This project is distributed under the LaTeX project public license (LPPL), version 1.3c.
Requirements:
MikTex is recommended, TexLive doesn't find some packages, if somebody get's it working, let me know.
biber-Backend is standart! If you have Problems with that, check the FAQ.
The Makefile is only tested with mingw32-make.
Quick start guide:
quick and dirty
To get started, create a new folder for your project somewhere on your PC and create your .tex file. Copy the classfile (.cls) you want to use and
the HsH-logo.pdf from the src folder to your projectfolder. You can optionally copy the config.tex, but you can also configure everything in your
preamble.
using a proper subfolder structure
The projects also provides a recommendation for a subfolder structure, to keep things organized. Cloning the complete projekt into your projectfolder
will allow you to use it easily.
This has the downside of storing classfiles and other needed files in the .\src folder, which means it needs to be added to the path searched when
running your latex command. How to do that is explained in the wiki.
The provided Makefile demonstrates how to run a successful build, you might want to check it out.
recomendet Software
As a Tex-Distribution, I recomend MikTex is recommended. This is only avalible on windows though.
To edit the .tex files, you could use any texteditor, but I personally like Visual Studio Code the moste, which
can also be used for pretty much all other programing languages. Use the Latex Workshop extention
and you can steal my config file from here.
If you preffer a Tex-only editor, I used Texmaker in the past and it's also verry good.
Common additions and expantions (Snippets)
Sadly most Profs have widly different expectaions when it comes to styling of written works. So you might find yourself having to change some settings. For some cases this has allready been done and, to help others, uploaded in the snippets section of the project. Most of them are only visible when you are logged in!!
