We talk about Lyx, Latex, etc., but NOT about overleaf - an online editor that makes collaborating super easy.

Let's add a building block!

Building Block

Purpose

Overleaf is an easy route to starting to use Latex.

1. What's overleaf and when to use it (e.g., online editor, use when wanting to collaborate, but having limited experience with compiling tex documents).
2. How to get started (e.g., go to this page, sign up and start using; link to our templates for latex and maybe show how to setup a document - use screenshots here!)
3. Getting the most out of Overleaf 3a. Synching with GitHub 3b. Using Grammarly with Overleaf --> link to https://github.com/robindijkhof/overleaf-textarea
