I recently moved from Vim to neovim, and from other LaTeX editors to… well, also neovim. It’s wild how good the experience is – I wanted to quickly thank the whole community for creating excellent resources for getting started, supporting so many great plugins, and being generally a positive group! I’ve learned a tremendous amount, mostly thanks to the hard work of others. I also wanted to thank people like u/lervag and u/def-lkb for their amazing TeX-focused work.

While I was learning about the neovim/LaTeX ecosystem I tried to take some vaguely pedagogical notes. I’m sure this is all well-known to folks in this space, but just in case it’s helpful to anyone I wrote up some thoughts on using (neo)vim as a LaTeX editor, with specific pages for setting up neovim for LaTeX work, working with LuaSnip, using VimTeX, and experimenting with TeXpresso.

I had a lot of fun learning about all of this, and throughout I tried to give credit to the guides that helped me the most (like the crazily good Guide to supercharged mathematical typesetting from u/ejmastnak). If people know of other good resources in this area that I missed I would love to hear about them so that (a) I can learn more, and (b) I can credit them from the relevant pages!
