Toot

Written by j_bertolotti on 2025-01-20 at 14:58

Brief list of useful online tools for #LaTeX (#TeXLaTeX) users:

https://www.unicodeit.net to use Maths symbols on pages that do not support LaTeX (e.g. here)

https://www.tablesgenerator.com/latex_tables to generate tables without going mad

https://editor.codecogs.com to get an image of your equations you can copy-paste

https://detexify.kirelabs.org/classify.html to find what is the command for that less-used symbol you can never remember

https://www.doi2bib.org to get a well-formatted revtex bibliography from the doi of the paper

Do you have more to add? 😀

@aadmaa Great tool, but I wouldn't classify something you need to install as a "online tool" 🙂

@j_bertolotti It's not a tool as the others… but:

https://texdoc.org/

Its a online version of #texdoc which allows you to access the #TeXLaTeX package documentation.

You may use the search funtionality or use the string you would pass to texdoc (see below) like

https://texdoc.org/serve/geometry/0

And in case you have LaTeX installed locally texdoc itself. (https://tug.org/texdoc/)

just type texdoc package and you get the docs.

For example the LaTeX intro is at:
