Handsome LaTeX is a custom LaTeX template that I developed and used throughout my academic years for writing documents, reports, and assignments.
The template includes a range of predefined components and formatting options designed to help you organize your content clearly and present it in a professional, visually appealing way. Itβs suitable for both technical and non-technical documents.
If you'd like to see the final result, you can view the complete PDF here.
Note
The included PDF is a basic demo designed to showcase the different components of the template in various use cases.

A full TeX distribution is assumed for building the PDF. While there are several options available for different operating systems (Windows, macOS, Linux), TeX Live is the recommended choice.
You can install TeX Live directly from the official source for the most up-to-date version. Alternatively, on Debian-based systems, you can use:
sudo apt-get install texlive-full
Note
The package from apt is often a few versions behind the latest release.
If you'd prefer not to install the dependencies directly on your system, you can also use Docker as an alternative environment to build the project.
To get started with this template, simply copy the preamble.tex
file into your project.
You can then use it by following the structure shown in the example main.tex
file.
To generate the output PDF, make sure you have LaTeX (see here) installed on your system, and that the latexmk
command is available in your terminal.
Once that's set up, simply run:
latexmk {YOUR_DOCUMENT}.tex -pdf
Important
For this command to work correctly, both preamble.tex
and main.tex
must be located in the same directory.
Or, you can just clone this repo
git clone https://github.io/leoraclet/handsome-latex
cd handsome-latex
And then just use the Makefile
like this
make
Warning
I'm currently happy with the way the template is set up, so I don't plan to make any changes in the near future.
