![]() More information on how to set this up can be found at: Using Git and GitHub This is like a superset of GitHub and Dropbox permission model - it's personal, and per project. If a user has a premium subscription, they can git clone/push/pull to all projects they have access to. Git: If the project is owned by a user with a premium subscription, all members of the project can git clone/push/pull to it. So this can be thought of as a 'per project' feature. Once the project is linked, all users in the project can click the button to sync it. GitHub: A user with a premium subscription can link any project they own to a GitHub repo. How this works depends a little on which option you choose: As well as providing another quick way to take backups, they also make collaboration easier across teams where different authors like to work on LaTeX documents in different ways.įor example, if you like to use Overleaf in the browser, but your collaborator prefers to work using a locally installed LaTeX editor, you can use the Git or GitHub sync to ensure your work stays connected. Overleaf also provides Git and GitHub sync options. For premium users who wish to enable collaborators to sync locally, we recommend the Git or GitHub sync options described below. So this can be thought of as a 'personal' feature. Please note that a user having Dropbox synchronization turned on does not enable collaborators to also sync projects to their local Dropbox folders (unless they also have a premium subscription). More information about Dropbox sync in Overleaf is available at: Dropbox Synchronization ![]() Once linked, any changes to your project in Overleaf will automatically sync to your Dropbox folder on your computer, and any changes you make locally in Dropbox will appear in your project online. A user with a premium subscription can link their Overleaf account to Dropbox. Overleaf provides an automatic two-way sync between Overleaf and Dropbox. Note that it is not currently possible to use the Overleaf-hosted web editor whilst offline, as all compilations are run on our servers. To ensure you can run all of the packages of Overleaf "out-of-the-box", you can download the TeXLive distribution, and you can compile with Latexmk to compile everything in one go (see this article for more information on how Overleaf compiles your projects). ![]() You can see some options for installing LaTeX here. ![]() You can use any plain text editor to edit your projects locally, and you can download a free installation of LaTeX to compile your projects locally as well. Note: You may want to use a PDF reader that watches your PDF files, like Skim (can be installed by brew install -cask skim and Sync feature can be enabled in Preferences -> Sync).Overleaf provides a number of integrations which enable you to create and sync local copies of your projects, so that you can work offline using local text editors, and can keep these copies in sync with Overleaf when you're back online. Now you should pick a LaTeX editor, here are some to choose from: Note: You may find CLI tool tlmgr cumbersome to use, in that case install GUI for tlmgr - TeX Live Utility - brew install -cask tex-live-utility. You may use tlmgr to install tools/packages that you need. You can read more about BasicTex in BasicTeX (pdf). BasicTeXĭownload BasicTeX, or use brew install -cask basictex. Since MacTex installs a LaTex editor ( TexMaker) already, installing another LaTeX editor is unnecessary. You can read more about MacTex in What is installed (pdf). MacTexĭownload MacTex, or use brew install -cask mactex. So, after installing BasicTeX you will be faced with the tasks of installing additional programs and installing missing packages. The trade-off that comes with using BasicTeX is that you will have to download and install additional packages and programs as the need arises- and BasicTeX is so basic that the need will arise. BasicTeX does not include these GUI programs. MacTeX includes additional programs such as an editor and a BibTeX reference manager that help users to work with TeX outside of the command line.
