latex template, in construction, looking for best practice

My Foolish Latex Template

Info

• target: xxxx-yy
• deadline: 20yy-mm-dd

Workflow

• apply style files specified by the target conference/journal
• create an overleaf project and import this repo
• invite co-authors to the project
• complete the initial draft as quickly as possible
• revise many times until almost perfect (two weeks before the deadline)
• grammarly
• ask comments from your co-authors
• fit the page limit
• preparing appendix / code / video
• remove all comment lines
• submit, let's pray🙏🏻

Note

compiling

the template relies on Latexmk.

formatting

pre-commit is a convenient tool. In particular, I prefer to format bibtex styles with bibtex-tidy. Try the following to setup:

pre-commit install

For each commit, formatting is automatically performed.
