To update just the content of the book, simply rename and modify the source .Rmd files according to your needs.

Cleanthesis layout

Cleanthesis is a clean LaTeX style for thesis documents created by Ricardo Langner. To learn more about available options and modifications read the cleanthesis documentation and apply changes accordingly.

Title page

Metadata variable such as title, university, and reviews can be modified in the file preamble.tex. This template contains two different kinds of title pages. You can modify or remove them in the latex file titlepage.tex.

• The actual title page and second page are completely customized according to the requirements of my university.
• The other title page (actual third page) is the title page according to the cleanthesis package.
