community-itu-thesis:0.2.0

[hmzsnc96]

Adds itu-thesis 0.1.0 — a thesis template for graduate theses at Istanbul Technical University (İTÜ), ported from the official LaTeX class (itutez.cls v1.7.1) to Typst.

Features:

• Outer cover + Turkish inner cover + English inner cover
• Jury approval / signature page
• Roman page numbers for front matter, arabic for the body
• Auto List of Figures / List of Tables, Table of Contents
• Numbered chapters ("BÖLÜM 1. …") and unnumbered front/back matter
• NUM (IEEE) and APA citation styles; Turkish & English language support

Notes:

• This is an unofficial community port (not officially endorsed by İTÜ); clearly stated in the README.
• The template targets Times New Roman; where unavailable it falls back to Libertinus Serif.

Checklist:

• I read the author guide.
• name/version match the directory layout; entrypoint and template entrypoint compile.
• Includes a README.md, LICENSE (MIT) and a thumbnail.png (excluded via exclude).

Note on the remaining warning: template/fig/example.png is intentionally kept (not excluded) because the template's main.typ/main-apa.typ reference it via image("fig/example.png") to demonstrate figure insertion. Excluding it would break typst init compilation for users. All reported errors (homepage field, thumbnail in exclude) have been fixed.

[hmzsnc96]

Update: this has been resolved. The example image was replaced with a placeholder drawn in Typst, so template/fig/example.png was removed and the template no longer depends on any bundled raster asset. All checks (Lint, Test, and the typst.app package check) are now green with 0 errors and 0 warnings. (My earlier comment about keeping the file is outdated.)

Could you take another look at the full checklist that's usually provided as the PR template, especially regarding the package name?

I have read and followed the submission guidelines and, in particular, I

• selected a name that isn't the most obvious or canonical name for what the package does
  • Explanation:
    Please write one or two sentences explaining:
    1. the name of your package, if necessary, e.g:

    Pergamon was an ancient Greek city state in Asia Minor. Its library was second only to the Library of Alexandria around 200 BC.

    2. why it isn't too canonical/descriptive and complies with the naming rules, e.g:
    • The name is a related but creative term
    • The name is a neologism combining the words … and …
    • The name contains a non-descriptive prefix
    • The package is official ⇒ an email will be sent to hello@typst.app
• added a typst.toml file with all required keys
• added a README.md with documentation for my package
• have chosen a license and added a LICENSE file or linked one in my README.md
• tested my package locally on my system and it worked
• excluded PDFs or README images, if any, but not the LICENSE
• ensured that my package is licensed such that users can use and distribute the contents of its template directory without restriction, after modifying them through normal use.

Thanks for the review! I've renamed the package from itu-thesis to community-itu-thesis and updated the directory, typst.toml, README and the template imports accordingly.

Full checklist:

I have read and followed the submission guidelines and, in particular, I

• selected a name that isn't the most obvious or canonical name for what the package does
  • Explanation: The package is a thesis template for Istanbul Technical University (İTÜ). I renamed it from the canonical itu-thesis to community-itu-thesis, adding the non-descriptive community- prefix. This follows the same pattern as existing community-maintained university templates (e.g. community-ostfalia-thesis, community-gzqy-thesis), and it also accurately signals that this is an unofficial community port of the official LaTeX class — not officially endorsed by İTÜ (stated clearly in the README).
• added a typst.toml file with all required keys
• added a README.md with documentation for my package
• have chosen a license (MIT) and added a LICENSE file
• tested my package locally on my system and it worked (both main.typ NUM and main-apa.typ APA examples compile)
• excluded PDFs or README images, if any, but not the LICENSE — N/A: no PDFs or README images are bundled; the template thumbnail is auto-excluded; LICENSE is kept.
• ensured the package is licensed (MIT) such that users can use and distribute the template directory contents without restriction after modifying them.

Thank you! I've got one last nitpick

[saecki]

It is generally appreciated to have at least an introduction sentence in English, even if the target audience for the template is not native English speakers. This allows the broader Typst community to get an idea of what the package is about and make sure that it isn't of interest to them.

[hmzsnc96]

Thanks for the review! I've rewritten the README in English (not just the intro), so the wider Typst community can tell what the package is about. Let me know if anything else is needed.
