Overleaf: `#FuturePub London returned to a full house!’, 10 April 2019
I have switched from basic desktop MikTex to Overleaf for most of my day-to-day needs. They recently had a FuturePub session in London. I’m enthusiastic about their capability and degree of support, especially in their documentation.
Posted in collaboration, LaTeX, Overleaf, ShareLaTeX
