Just for information: I have created a small CLI tool named lol very similar to laton that use latexonline.cc as service. The main differences with laton are the following:
its written in go and binaries are provided for all major platforms. In particular can be used on Windows without bash and without all additional tools.
Not only latexonline.cc but also latex.ytotech.com can be used as compilation service.
The configuration can be provided not only by flags but also by config file or/and by environment variables.
The main file can be piped to lol.
The project provides not only a CLI executable but a go module as well.
This project is in very alpha stage so for example I have not implemented yet the -g option to list all git files.
