Feel free to contribute to this project!

Getting started

Create a new repository (git init) and add this repository as submodule in a folder called template. (You may use git submodule add https://github.com/michkoll/latex-template-cheatsheet.git template.) Then create a file like my-cheatsheet.tex on the toplevel of your repository with the following content:

% arara: pdflatex

% metadata:
\newcommand{\cheatsheetcreator}{My name}
\newcommand{\cheatsheetname}{My cheatsheet title}
\newcommand{\customfooter}{My custom footer}

\input{template/Template/cheatsheet-template-prefix.tex}

% cheatsheet content:
% <your cheatsheet-content>

\input{template/Template/cheatsheet-template-suffix.tex}

Then you simply call arara my-cheatsheet.tex to compile your document.

See the content of the forensics-cheatsheet-repository for an example.

To get this working the following commands must be available on your system:
