I've recently discovered ShareLaTex as a convenient browser-based LaTex editor that allows:

  • collaboration (like google docs)
  • many templates (CV, slides, thesis,...)
  • WYSIWYG editor

And I'm opening this issue just to let you know that I've requested to add this project to the supported templates.

Well, this has a serious drawback: The template on SL is never going to be updated unless a manual update by the SL stuff is requested. This means that we'll have the current not-really-best version around forever. But I mean, since I consider SL bad, I don't really care.

No WYSIWYG, as far as i know.
Also, i am against distributing templates.
Just my two cents.

Ok, I understand your concern and agree that the "installation"/cloning is pretty easy.

So the options are:

  • "easier" default template on SL that (probably someone outside of CTU) might discover and like; but will get outdated (unless action again requested)
  • things stay GH only, bleeding edge

I'm still inclining to offering a default template, as I can't imagine a student at CTU/FEE who couldn't clone a git repo, but the template is supposed to be university-wide, so maybe... But then again, SL is a marginal thing too. @tohecz you're the maintainer, so you decide ...

I think we found a nice compromise, I've mailed the SL staff about the out-dating concern and suggested that they setup automatic sync with this git repo. If they can do that there is no drawback nor maintenance effort in having the template.
