Compatibility with Overleaf #7

Open james-ennis opened 6 years ago

james-ennis commented 6 years ago

Overleaf is a popular software service that allows you to create .tex files through a web interface. When using Overleaf, one must upload required files to their server. Because of this, there is not an obvious way to include the features offered by RepSeP.

I currently have a WIP overleaf document which has tripped up on including the 3D plot, does anyone have any ideas on how we could solve this?

Once this issue is closed, I think we should add some documentation detailing how one can achieve this.

So, with the current state of the Overleaf project, we're never going to invoke pythontex.py, just like we do when we compile locally (./compile article): https://github.com/TheChymera/RepSeP/blob/master/compile.sh#L19

So they don't allow you to have your own compile script? Otherwise we could just upload pythontex.py like we do the *.sty files.
