This page contains useful supplementary resources and tools useful for research and training. Note that this list is not intended to be complete but rather a best practise that we found useful. However, for tools we provide references to alternatives as every person has its own style. Suggestions are welcome, too.
Georg-August-Universität Göttingen LaTeX templates for reports, presentations and theses available under CC-BY-SA 4.0 can be found here:

Wait for the project to be ready and the drag and drop the zip files into the webpage to upload them. From there you can click on them to get to a screen for unpacking each zip file. Navigate the explorer and click on the respective main tex file to start editing.
