Intro webinar on Overleaf and LaTeX
Channel: Cacti Council
Date: 2020-12-11

Join us for a friendly, accessible introduction to the cloud-based LaTeX editor, Overleaf, used for writing, editing and publishing any kind of formal document you want (not just scientific ones). LaTeX, TeX, and the like are free, open-source, high-quality typesetting systems with a rich history in academia and the primary alternative to rich-text WYSIWYG editors like Microsoft Word. Overleaf provides the convenience of an easy-to-use online LaTeX editor with real-time collaboration and a fully compiled document produced automatically in the background as you type (or on demand). The edit history is also backed by Git, the free, open-source, industry standard file version control system.
