Part A: LaTeX distribution

You will need a LaTeX distribution to compile this project locally, here is a list of tested and working distributions for this project:

MiKTeX
WebsiteDownload

Easy to install but does not ship with Perl which the latexmk package requires.

  1. Install MiKTeX using the above link. Then you have the option to upgrade your installation to a standard TeX system. Just click the Upgrade button. Please be aware that this starts a ~200MB download.
    Alternatively, you can turn on the auto-install feature and let MiKTeX install missing packages on-the-fly. You can find this option in the Settings tab.
On Windows
  1. You can install Perl using Strawberry Perl, which is available here.
    Once it's installed, you can verify that Perl is available by opening a new command prompt and typing perl -v. If it's installed correctly, you should see the version of Perl that you installed.

  2. Verify that both Perl and MiKTeX are in your PATH and restart any open command prompts.

  3. You should now be able to compile your $LaTeX$ files using MiKTeX.

On MacOS
  1. You can install Perl using Homebrew, which is available here.

    brew install perl  

    Once it's installed, you can verify that Perl is available by opening a new terminal and typing perl -v. If it's installed correctly, you should see the version of Perl that you installed.

  2. Add ~/bin to your PATH by adding the following line to your ~/.zshrc file:

    export PATH="/Users/<username>/bin:$PATH"

    Warning
    Here we use the full path instead of using ~/bin or $HOME/bin because the ~ and $HOME variables does not works if used in combination with the VS Code latex-workshop extension.

  3. You should now be able to compile your $LaTeX$ files using MiKTeX.

Any other LaTeX distribution to suggest?

Part B: IDE

After installing a LaTeX distribution, you will need an IDE to edit and compile your $LaTeX$ files, here is a list of tested and working IDEs for this project:

Visual Studio Code
Website

This template require the use of the LaTeX Workshop extension to compile the $LaTeX$ files directly within VS Code.

While they are not required to use the template, the following extensions are recommended for some Quality of Life improvements:

To compile the report, you can use the Ctrl + Alt + B shortcut or the LaTeX Workshop: Build LaTeX project command inside Visual Studio Code.

Note
More information on the LaTex Workshop extension can be found here.
