My Workflow
LaTeX is a high-quality typesetting system, and it's the de facto standard for the communication and publication of scientific documents.
I think the Git version control system fits perfectly when it comes to collaborative, scientific writing. It's superior to the Google Docs style of Overleaf.
Installing a full LaTeX system takes up a considerable amount time and space on your hard drive. I heard about Tectonic during the PackagingCon 2021 and immediately I knew that's the kind of stuff I want to deploy on GitHub Actions.
Tectonic is a modernized, complete, self-contained TeX/LaTeX engine, powered by XeTeX and TeXLive. (...) Tectonic automatically downloads support files so you don’t have to install a full LaTeX system in order to start using it. If you start using a new LaTeX package, Tectonic just pulls down the files it needs and continues processing. The underyling “bundle” technology allows for completely reproducible document compiles.
