I love Emacs but I just don't find editing LaTeX on Emacs an enjoyable.

I am mostly using Overleaf (overleaf.com) which is free for individual use. They only charge for collaboration features and integration with bibliography management software. Free for universities and institutions back then when I was using it a lot, not sure about it now.

Now I find that writing in org-mode then export to LaTeX is the best experience you can have on Emacs. I can do pretty much everything I wanted to do, math typsetting, and even Beamer.

A big warning though, is that you still need some configuration and you will need to be aware of that you are writing for LaTeX export in order for a smooth experience. Especially when you have code blocks with long lines.

Maybe I should write up an article on this some day as tutorials, such as the one for Beamer (https://orgmode.org/worg/exporters/beamer/tutorial.html) does NOT completely cover all the issues that you will face during writing.

I didn’t get to read the article yet - but loading it is crashing Firefox and Safari on my IPhone - haven’t seen that happen in a while!
