Your thesis

Documents produced with ZhThesis belong to their authors. A thesis written with the class does not have to use the LPPL, display a ZhThesis notice, cite the project, or publish its source.

Modified versions

The class may be adapted and redistributed under the LPPL. A modified version must comply with the license and must not present itself as an official ZhThesis release. The maintained version is the repository:

https://github.com/yixnhuang/zhthesis

Citation

Citation is welcome but never required inside a thesis. The repository includes a CITATION.cff, so GitHub's Cite this repository button produces a formatted entry.
