LaTeX editor

ShareLaTeX is a browser-based LaTeX editor that simplifies the collaborative writing and editing of academic texts and scientific papers. It enables the collaborative creation of documents in real time and with a version history. A variety of templates support the creation of high-quality work. The platform with integrated chat and simple project sharing promotes teamwork and efficiency in the academic writing process.

Collaborative LaTeX writing and live preview

LaTeX is a text typesetting system that is particularly suitable for creating scientific documents. It enables the precise formatting and design of texts, including complex mathematical formulas and tables, and is valued by academics and researchers worldwide.

ShareLaTeX offers two core functions for this:

  1. Real-time collaborative writing: ShareLaTeX allows multiple users to work on a document at the same time, similar to Google Docs. Changes are visible to all participants in real time, making it much easier to collaborate on scientific documents. A version history makes changes traceable and reversible. The integrated chat supports communication of remote teams.

  2. Direct compilation and preview: ShareLaTeX compiles LaTeX code directly in the cloud so that users can immediately see a preview of their document. This saves time and simplifies the document creation process, as no local LaTeX installation is required.
