#LaTeX document class for bachelor and master theses written at the Institute for Web Science and Technologies The document class "WeSTthesis.cls" is based on "cgBA.cls" which was provided by the Research Group Mueller. It is oriented at the style guides provided by the examination board of the Faculty of Computer Science at the University of Koblenz-Landau. The document class provides a cover page template, a statement on source usage and publication, and some basic text formatting. The file example.tex contains some of the most important LaTeX packages for writing a bachelor or master thesis.
#Usage The following command is used to include the document class in the .tex document.
