Hi everyone, We built LaTeXWriter because most existing LaTeX editors felt either outdated, too slow, or lacked proper collaboration features. Tools like Overleaf rely on server-side compilation, which often leads to compilation queues, limits, and slowdowns. On the other hand, offline editors are faster but don’t allow real-time online collaboration with others. With LaTeXWriter, we wanted to solve this once and for all by combining the best of both worlds. Compilation happens on your own device, so there are no server queues or limits. At the same time, online file storage allows real-time collaboration with your team. LaTeXWriter also has a version control system, so you never lose progress, and AI assistance is built in to make your workflow smoother. Once installed, you can start editing immediately without worrying about large package downloads or setup. What we’re most proud of is creating a modern, reliable, and collaboration-friendly LaTeX experience that feels natural whether you’re working alone or with a team. We’d love to hear your thoughts. Do you currently use Overleaf, offline editors, or a mix of both? What’s the biggest pain point you face while writing with LaTeX? Excited to get your feedback and suggestions. — Team LaTeXWriter

minimalist phone: creating folders

Love it!

I see more tools like these more often and I assume it is becoming a trending product (in general). Wish you a good luck! :)

The Fast compile alone makes me curious. Waiting on LaTeX output during deadlines was always painful.

@charlotte_combes Glad you like it! To give some transparency: with LaTeXWriter, compilation happens locally on your computer. The fast preview mode loads the PDF as images, so it appears instantly while scrolling, even though it looks identical to the final PDF. You can also turn it off anytime to see the exact PDF preview as it will appear after downloading.
