@saecki, this is the updated package. It looks like there are some check fails which I'll work through fixing. I'm using this for my own thesis (decided to develop it after getting frustrated with LaTeX, even though Overleaf was a great innovation, typst is much nicer to work with).

Hey, it looks like you only copied your manifest, you should import other files too. Also, you should create a new subdirectory named after the version you are publishing.

Also, the name you choose for your package can be considered to be the canonical name for this package, which would only be allowed if the Melbourne University officially endorsed this package and committed to maintaining and promoting it. If that's the case, a member of the university staff should send an email to hello@typst.app stating so (with their academic email). Otherwise, I will ask you to change the name to something more distinctive.
