What does the UC Berkeley Thesis template load?
It uses the ucbthesis class, builds with pdfLaTeX, and loads 2 packages: biblatex and rotating.
How does UC Berkeley Thesis handle references?
It uses BibLaTeX. References live in a .bib file, and the build runs the bibliography step for you, so citations and the reference list update every time you compile.
How long is the UC Berkeley Thesis sample?
The compiled sample is 16 pages, from 5 files: 4 .tex, 1 .bib. Replace the sample text with yours and the layout stays.
Is the UC Berkeley Thesis template free to use online?
Yes. "Open as Template" makes it your own LetX project: edit the LaTeX in the browser, invite collaborators to edit with you in real time, and download the compiled PDF. There is nothing to install.
