Unofficial thesis layout for ČVUT (CTU in Prague)

Package: @preview/sleek-cvut-thesis Typst 0.11+ License: MIT-0

Preview of the sleek-cvut-thesis Typst template

sleek-cvut-thesis is an unofficial Typst template for qualification theses at the Czech Technical University in Prague. It currently focuses on the Faculty of Electrical Engineering (fel-thesis).

Note: This template is unofficial and not endorsed by ČVUT. Always verify the final PDF against your faculty’s current thesis requirements before submitting.

Features

  • Nice cover page with logo, study branch, thesis type, author, supervisor/details grid, and submission date.
  • Declaration of authorship page (in Czech) with a signature line.
  • Czech and English abstract pages with localized keywords.
  • Styled table of contents via fel-toc.
  • Sensible thesis layout: 11pt serif text, justified paragraphs, numbered headings, first-line indentation, and clean figures/code-blocks.
  • Optional print binding gutter with wider inside margin.
  • Template project with ČVUT logo and ISO690-numeric citation style.

Quick start

In the Typst web app, click Start from template and search for sleek-cvut-thesis.

Or initialize a fresh project locally with the Typst CLI:

typst init @preview/sleek-cvut-thesis:0.1.0 my-thesis
cd my-thesis
typst watch main.typ

Typst will copy the starter project (from the template folder) and keep recompiling the PDF whenever you make changes.
