this basically does the following:

• copies a bunch of markdown files from a target folder over to /md
• removes a variety of Illegal stuff that doesn't play well with pandoc...
  • all blockquotes removed
  • all dataview code blocks removed
  • bulleted lists get double line breaks before a paragraph that uses them
  • numbered lists get double line breaks before a paragraph that uses them
  • section headings get double line breaks before and after any text
  • section headings are kicked down a level (anything with two hashes at the start of a line)
  • wikilinks are removed, and converted to bolded text to make sure you don't forget to fix them if necessary
• passes the resulting /md folder through pandoc with the specified bibliography, plus a bunch of flags, and spits it out to /tex
• re-parses the resulting /tex to re-convert references, labels, and other fun things from their markdown form (e.g. wikilinks)
• combines all of the /tex documents in a hardcoded order with hardcoded chapter names and labels
• sticks it in the middle, using base.tex as a template
• spits the result out as thesis.tex, which should be valid to copy-paste into overleaf

just run python src/main.py

known issues:

• tables are still kinda broken
• code blocks look ugly
• figures/images aren't accounted for at all, and certainly not excalidraw drawings
