An Introduction to LaTeX

Helping you learn to use LaTeX

The Plan

If you look at the about page, you'll notice that I plan to have a series of basic videos, some advanced videos, and plenty of tips & tricks. But I want to let you in on what I'm planning a bit more, I want to let you behind the curtain.

My plan is that the basic videos will be about 15 to 20 minutes each, and will build on those prior. Initially, I plan on covering the following:

  1. A Pre-Introduction

  2. An Introduction

  3. Handling things like sections, bullets, numbered lists

  4. Tables, Figures and the like

  5. Handling Mathematics

  6. URLs and Links

  7. Bibliographies

These should be, in general, some of the most important things to learn as you start writing LaTeX. In addition to the basic tutorials, I plan on covering some more advanced topics. These will be a bit longer that the basic videos, and will cover more advanced topics, or will cover things in-depth. Further, I plan on sharing some "Tips & Tricks", things that may make your life easier, or help you do something cool. These will be fairly short and a bit less formal, as they won't be comprehensive, and will likely cover something fairly simply.

Stay tuned, also, to the behind the curtain tag, I'll share more about what I'm planning, how I've built this website, what I use to do recording, etc.

I'm not going to start recording or posting too much more until after this (Fall 2020) semester is over. But I will be preparing in the mean time.
