    The Overleaf FAQ states at What packages do you support? that they support TeX Live 2016, which does not include all new packages. The templates makes use of two packages, which are not included at overleaf until now. Thus, you have to upload the sty files manually.

    Insert the URL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/latextemplates/stys-for-overleaf/master/lccaps.sty
    lccaps
