In this video I'll talk about all the major things needed to write a thesis using LaTeX, a markup language that is great for displaying any content with formulas. We'll start with the title page, abstract, dedication, acknowledgement. I'll show how to separate out chapter into different files, table of contents, manage appendices, figures, and bibliographies, cite reference, use footnotes, and adjust the margins of your document using the geometry package.

"Writing a Thesis Using LaTeX" offers a comprehensive guide for thesis writers. It covers document structure, references, tables, and figures. The tutorial provides clear examples and practical tips. However, it could benefit from a slower pace for beginners and shorter segments for accessibility. Overall, it's an invaluable resource for streamlining thesis writing with LaTeX. -

Easy instructions and simple to follow along.
To those who don't want to use Overleaf and instead want something that you can install in your PC, you could look into Texmaker. It has the same interface as Overleaf and it is quite cool and open source. -
