This repository contains the source code to my 2019 SOČ paper (written in LaTeX). It describes the work and the thought process behind robotics-simplified.com.
The presentation about the paper can be found here
If you want to use the project as a template for your own SOČ paper, or to compile the paper, there are some things you should know before doing so.
The paper was converted to PDF using LuaTeX. It was chosen mainly for its out-of-the-box UFT-8 support (which pdfTeX lacks). It comes with most of the major TeX distributions like TeX Live and MiKTeX, so you should already have it installed.
compile.py is the script that was used to build the paper. I would recommend you either use it directly or run the same commands in the command line to properly render things like bibliography or the list of acronyms.
If you don't need code highlights, simply remove \usepackage{minted} from paper.tex and skip the rest of this section.
Code highlights in the paper use the minted package, which uses Pygments (a Python syntax highlighter). To install it, run this command in your terminal:
pip install Pygments
You can then run pygmentize -V to ensure that the program installed correctly. Keep in mind that you will need to run the compilation with the --shell-escape option to allow shell interaction (see compile.py).
The font CMU Serif was used to typeset the (majority of the) paper, mainly due to it's bold small caps support that SOČ requires for certain headings. Make sure to have it installed either on your system or through your TeX distribution if you plan on using it.
You can also use a different system font by changing the line \setmainfont{CMU Serif} in paper.tex.
The paper also uses FontAwesome5 and the fontawesome5 package to typeset certain symbols and icons. You can either remove the line \usepackage{fontawesome5} from paper.tex if you don't plan on using any of the icons, or install the font on your system.
