\chapter{Introduction}
Sleek Template is a minimal collection of \LaTeX{} packages and settings that ease the writing of beautiful documents. While originally meant for theses, it is perfectly suitable for project reports, articles, syntheses, etc. -- with a few adjustments, like margins.
It is composed of four separate packages -- \texttt{sleek}, \texttt{sleek-title}, \texttt{sleek-theorems} and \texttt{sleek-listings} -- each of which can be used individually.

\blindfootnote{If you are a \LaTeX{} beginner consider the excellent \href{https://www.overleaf.com/learn}{Overleaf tutorial}. Also, there are a lot of symbols available in \LaTeX{} and, therefore, in this template. I recommend the use of \enquote{The Comprehensive \LaTeX{} Symbol List} \cite{pakin2020comprehensive} for searching symbols.}
\chapter{Features}
\section{\texttt{sleek}}
\texttt{sleek} is the main package. It imports the packages (\emph{cf.} Table \ref{tab:sleek_relevant_packages}) and setups the settings that make Sleek Template easy to use.
There are three available options to the \texttt{sleek} package :
\begin{enumerate}[noitemsep]
\item \texttt{parindent} add indentation to the first line of paragraphs;
\item \texttt{noheader} removes the document header;
\item \texttt{french} changes the decimal sign to a comma and translates some captions.
\end{enumerate}
But nothing prevents you to tweak the settings to your liking in the source code.
\subsection{Mathematics}
This template uses \texttt{amsmath} and \texttt{amssymb}, which are the de-facto standard for typesetting mathematics. Additionally, \texttt{esint} provides alternative integral symbols (\emph{cf.} Table 78 in \cite{pakin2020comprehensive}) and \texttt{bm} is used for bold math symbols like vectors (see \eqref{eq:gauss_law}).
A few custom macros have also been added such as \texttt{\tbs{}rbk}, \texttt{\tbs{}sbk} and \texttt{\tbs{}cbk} for respectively round, square and curly brackets, \texttt{\tbs{}abs} for absulute value, \texttt{\tbs{}norm} for norm, \texttt{\tbs{}fact} for factorial and \texttt{\tbs{}diff} for up-right differential.
$$
\rbk{\frac{\pi}{2}}, \quad \sbk{\frac{\pi}{2}}, \quad \cbk{\frac{\pi}{2}}, \quad \abs{\frac{\pi}{2}}, \quad \norm{\frac{\pi}{2}}, \quad \fact{n} = \prod_{i = 1}^{n} i, \quad \frac{\diff \bm{x}}{\diff t} = \bm{v}
$$
Here are some examples showcasing what is possible with the default packages of \texttt{sleek}.
\begin{equation}\label{eq:gauss_law}
\oiint_S \bm{E} \cdot \diff \bm{s} = \iiint_V \frac{\rho}{\varepsilon_0} \diff V
\end{equation}
\begin{equation*}
e = \sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{1}{n!}
\end{equation*}
\begin{subequations}
\begin{align}
\frac{\diff x}{\diff t} & = \alpha x - \beta xy \\
\frac{\diff y}{\diff t} & = \delta xy - \gamma y
\end{align}
\end{subequations}
\begin{align*}
\ln \abs{x} + C & = \int \frac{1}{x} \,\diff x \\
\exp(x) & = \lim_{n \to \infty} \rbk{1 + \frac{x}{n}}^n
\end{align*}
\begin{equation}
\left\{
\begin{aligned}
x & = r \sin \theta \cos \phi \\
y & = r \sin \theta \sin \phi \\
z & = r \cos \theta
\end{aligned}
\right.
\end{equation}
\begin{alignat*}{2}
& & P(A, B) & = P(A \mid B) P(B) \\
\Leftrightarrow \quad & & P(A \mid B) & = \frac{P(A, B)}{P(B)} \\
& & & = P(B \mid A) \frac{P(A)}{P(B)}
\end{alignat*}
\subsection{Units}
The \texttt{siunitx} package provides three commands to typeset numbers and quantities -- \texttt{\tbs{}num}, \texttt{\tbs{}si} and \texttt{\tbs{}SI} -- as well as various units (\emph{cf.} Table \ref{tab:siunitx_units}).
It is possible to write, both in text or math modes, numbers without units (\emph{e.g.} \num{1}, \num{1.0}, \num{-1}, \num{3.14159}, \num{e100}, $N_A = \num{6.022e23}$), units without quantity (\emph{e.g.} $\si{\joule} = \si{\newton\meter} = \si{\kilogram\meter\squared\per\second\squared}$) and, finally, quantities with their units (\emph{e.g.} \SI{9.81}{\meter\per\second\squared}, $c = \SI{299.6e6}{\meter\per\second}$).
\subsection{Lists}
Sleek Template uses \texttt{enumitem} to enhance the listing capabilities of \LaTeX{}. There are three lists environments :
\begin{enumerate}
\item \texttt{itemize} for unordered lists;
\item \texttt{enumerate} for ordered lists;
\item \texttt{description} for descriptive lists.
\end{enumerate}
In a list, each element is preceded by the command \texttt{\tbs{}item}. It is possible to modify the labels
\begin{itemize}
\item individually with \texttt{\tbs{}item[newLabel]};
\item for the whole environment with the \texttt{label=newLabel} option.
\end{itemize}
In the case of \texttt{enumerate}, \texttt{newLabel} can contain special expressions (\emph{cf.} Table \ref{tab:enumerate_special_expressions}) that will adapt to the item number. For example, \texttt{label=(\tbs{}alph*)} defines the label sequence \enquote{(a), (b), (c), ...}. Still in the case of \texttt{enumerate}, the \texttt{\tbs{}setcounter} and \texttt{\tbs{}addtocounter} commands allow to modify the current item number.
One could want to reduce the space between items with the \texttt{noitemsep} option or to delete the left margin with the \texttt{leftmargin=*} option.
It is also possible to write nested lists. Here follows a very condensed example.
\begin{itemize}[leftmargin=*]
\item Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.
Arcu ac tortor dignissim convallis aenean et tortor. In eu mi bibendum neque egestas congue quisque.
\item[$+$] Semper quis lectus nulla at volutpat diam ut. Felis eget velit aliquet sagittis id. Blandit aliquam etiam erat velit scelerisque in dictum non consectetur.
\begin{equation}
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
\end{equation}
\item Nibh sed pulvinar proin gravida hendrerit lectus. Pretium aenean pharetra magna ac placerat vestibulum lectus mauris. Non consectetur a erat nam at lectus urna duis.
\begin{enumerate}[noitemsep, label=\roman*.]
\item Nibh tortor id aliquet lectus. Sit amet justo donec enim diam vulputate ut pharetra sit.
\setcounter{enumi}{3}
\item Condimentum id venenatis a condimentum vitae. Quis eleifend quam adipiscing vitae proin sagittis nisl.
\addtocounter{enumi}{15}
\item Proin sagittis nisl rhoncus mattis rhoncus urna neque viverra.
\end{enumerate}
\item Elit scelerisque mauris pellentesque pulvinar pellentesque habitant morbi tristique senectus.
\begin{description}
\item[Ridiculus] mus mauris vitae ultricies leo. Mollis aliquam ut porttitor leo a diam. Velit egestas dui id ornare arcu odio ut sem nulla.
\item[Nullam vehicula] ipsum a arcu. Nibh sit amet commodo nulla facilisi nullam. At erat pellentesque adipiscing commodo elit. Libero volutpat sed cras ornare arcu dui.
\end{description}
\end{itemize}
\subsection{Figures}
Thanks to the \texttt{graphicx} package, it is possible to include external graphic documents (images, plots, etc.) in your document with the \texttt{\tbs{}includegraphics} command. Most image type format (\texttt{jpg}, \texttt{png}, \texttt{bmp}, etc.) are supported by this command. However, it should be noted that it is highly preferable to use vectorial types, such as \texttt{pdf} or \texttt{eps}.
\begin{figure}[H]

\includegraphics[width=0.5\textwidth]{resources/pdf/logo.pdf}
\noskipcaption{Random University logo.}
\label{fig:random_university_logo}
\end{figure}
\subsection{Tables}
The packages \texttt{multicol} and \texttt{multirow} comes handy for complex table formatting such as multi-column or multi-row cells.
\begin{table}[H]
\centering
\begin{tabular}{|r|r|c|l|}
\hline
\multicolumn{3}{|l|}{a} & qrs \\ \hline
b & ef & jkl & tuvx \\ \hline
cd & ghi & mnop & wyz \\ \hline
\end{tabular}

\end{tabular}
\caption{Example of multi-row cells.}
\label{tab:multirow_example}
\end{table}
\newpage
\section{\texttt{sleek-title}}
Sleek Template offers a custom title-page with the package \texttt{sleek-title}. The formatting of the title-page is automatically inferred from the fields that the user has provided.
The fields are \texttt{\tbs{}logo}, \texttt{\tbs{}institute}, \texttt{\tbs{}faculty}, \texttt{\tbs{}department}, \texttt{\tbs{}title}, \texttt{\tbs{}subtitle}, \texttt{\tbs{}author}, \texttt{\tbs{}supervisor}, \texttt{\tbs{}context} and \texttt{\tbs{}date}.
Among these, only \texttt{\tbs{}title}, \texttt{\tbs{}author} and \texttt{\tbs{}date} have to be provided. However, none of the fields should stay empty. Prefer deleting or commenting the line if so.

\end{lstlisting}
It is also possible to use Sleek Template without \texttt{sleek-title}, in which case the default \LaTeX{} title-page will be used.
\newpage
\section{\texttt{sleek-theorems}}
\texttt{sleek-theorems} is based on the \texttt{amsthm} and \texttt{thmtools} packages. It provides a handful of theorem-like environments, each of which have different style and purpose.
The environments are \texttt{thm} (theorem), \texttt{lem} (lemma), \texttt{prop} (proposition), \texttt{proof}, \texttt{defn} (definition), \texttt{hyp} (hypothesis), \texttt{meth} (method), \texttt{quest} (question), \texttt{answ} (answer), \texttt{expl} (example), \texttt{rmk} (remark), \texttt{note} and \texttt{tip}.
\begin{note}
The option \texttt{french} translates the name of each provided environment. It is also possible, and easy, to add your own language as an option in the source code.
\end{note}
\begin{thm}[Triangle inequality]
Let be a triangle in Euclidean space. Then the sum of the lengths of two of its sides always surpass or equals the length of the third.
\end{thm}
\begin{proof}
Let $a$, $b$ and $c$ be the lengths of the sides of a triangle in Euclidean space and $\alpha$, $\beta$, $\gamma$ their respective opposite angle. By the generalized Pythagoras' theorem, we have
\begin{alignat*}{2}
& & c^2 & = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab \cos\gamma \\
& & & \leq a^2 + b^2 + 2ab \\
& & & \leq (a + b)^2 \\
\Leftrightarrow \quad & & c & \leq a + b
\end{alignat*}
Therefore in any triangle, the sum of the lengths of two sides always surpass or equals the length of the third.
\end{proof}
In addition, these environments also have framed versions -- \texttt{framedthm}, \texttt{framedlem}, etc. -- for readability.
\begin{framedthm}[Triangle inequality]\label{thm:Triangle inequality}
Let be a triangle in Euclidean space. Then the sum of the lengths of two of its sides always surpass or equals the length of the third.
\end{framedthm}
\begin{framedprf}
Let $a$, $b$ and $c$ be the lengths of the sides of a triangle in Euclidean space and $\alpha$, $\beta$, $\gamma$ their respective opposite angle. By the generalized Pythagoras' theorem, we have
\begin{alignat*}{2}
& & c^2 & = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab \cos\gamma \\
& & & \leq a^2 + b^2 + 2ab \\
& & & \leq (a + b)^2 \\
\Leftrightarrow \quad & & c & \leq a + b
\end{alignat*}
Therefore in any triangle, the sum of the lengths of two sides always surpass or equals the length of the third. \qedadd
\end{framedprf}
\begin{framedquest*}
Based on the theorem \ref{thm:Triangle inequality}, what is the shortest path from a point $A$ to a point $B$ in Euclidean geometry ?
\end{framedquest*}
\newpage
\section{\texttt{sleek-listings}}
The \texttt{sleek-listings} package is a small collection of styles for the environments of the \texttt{listings} package, which is useful to showcase nicely samples of code.
Currently, the basic styles \texttt{default} and \texttt{monokai} are implemented. The former is a neutral style (no line numbering, no frame, only good old black code) while the latter is an all-framed style reproducing the iconic \href{https://monokai.nl/}{Monokai} color-map.
In addition, the language styles \texttt{c}, \texttt{cpp}, \texttt{matlab}, \texttt{python} and \texttt{java} are implemented, with basic color-maps.
Finally, some commands to build upon existing styles are provided :
\begin{itemize}
\item \texttt{\tbs{}NumberStyle\{stylename\}} creates a style \texttt{stylenameNumber} with line numbering;
\item \texttt{\tbs{}FrameStyle\{stylename\}} creates a style \texttt{stylenameFrame} with an all around frame;
\item \texttt{\tbs{}FrameTBStyle\{stylename\}} creates a style \texttt{stylenameFrameTB} with top and bottom line rules;
\item \texttt{\tbs{}FrameNumberStyle\{stylename\}} and \texttt{\tbs{}FrameTBNumberStyle\{stylename\}} have the same logic.
\end{itemize}
For example, the \texttt{\tbs{}FrameTBStyle\{python\}} command creates the \texttt{pythonFrameTB} style, which can then be used to showcase \texttt{Python} code.
\FrameTBStyle{python}
