Questions tagged [latex]
LaTeX is a programming language used primarily for creating high quality academic written documents, slideshows and posters. LaTeX questions are often a better fit for the sister site "TeX - LaTeX" (https://tex.stackexchange.com). This includes questions on tools and other languages producing LaTeX code. The JavaScript libraries MathJax and KaTeX are off-topic on "TeX - LaTeX" and should be asked on Stack Overflow instead (and tagged accordingly).
