\section{Example}

The \texttt{glossaries} package automatically generates a list of glossary entries. It's great for keeping track of your \gls{domain-knowledge} and \glspl{tla}. In this example we've put the glossary definitions in a separate \texttt{glossary.tex} file, which you can edit via the project menu.

\printglossaries
