Tools, Editors and Configuration

This section will give brief introduction to various tools and editors you may use in conjunction with LaTeX to build your documents.

Which editor should I pick?

  • Docker path: use VS Code. It is required to work inside our Docker image.

  • Native path: we recommend VS Code with the LaTeX Workshop extension. If you prefer a simple standalone LaTeX editor, use TeXstudio.

The tools below (Latexmk, Inkscape) are already covered by the installation steps. Their pages are here for reference.
