+## Do's and dont's
+
+General notes:
+
+- In chapter/section headlines, do not add the acronym.  
+  Good: `3. Data Plane Development Kit`.  
+  Bad: `3. Data Plane Development Kit (DPDK)`
+- Avoid enumerations in brackets; instead use "such as"
+- Use an acronym library and use it consistently throughout the thesis
+- Use a spellchecker!
+- Do not use a new page for a couple sentences. At least fill 1/4 or even more
+  of a page.
+- Do not add a Section 7.1 when you do not have a 7.2
+- Check for double spaces
+- Tables/Listings/... should not reach into the side edge
+- Use the package siunitx for consistent formatting of numbers
+- Use colors and different line types to highlight graphs better
+- Do not ever use forward references
+- Section/Chapter/Listing always with uppercase (this might be TUM specific?)
+- Tables should never have vertical lines
+
+Figures:
+
+- Avoid png or jpegs. Instead use vector graphics such as svg.
+- Do not write a novel in a figure caption. The caption is printed in the table
+  of content; large sentences look strage there and decreases readability.
+- A figure should have the same font as the remaining thesis
+- Avoid hard-to-read colors like yellow in figures.
+
+## Spellchecker
+
+_I am not afiliated to any service mentioned here_
+
+I personally had good experience with
+[Writefull](https://www.writefull.com/writefull-for-overleaf). More
+specifically, compared to alternatives, they support Latex. They trained their
+AI with scientific papers so that the recommendations mostly fit the expected
+writing style. Especially when it comes to commas, it pointed out many mistakes
+I would have never caught on my own.
+
+One thing I disliked about Writefull is that it is only available for Word
+documents or Overleaf. I am using neither of that. Therefore, I had to copy
+paste my tex files from my local editor to Overleaf. A bit of a hassle, but
+okay. Another thing I noticed is that the Latex acronym package is not
+supported. Often it would suggest to reorder my `\ac{DPDK}` so that it doesnt
+make any sense afterwards.
