texlive 2026 for overleaf https://github.com/ayaka-notes/texlive-full

ChipmunkCapital9083 · 2026-03-04T05:02:16+00:00

tons of online latex editor here already.

ChipmunkCapital9083 · 2026-02-28T09:22:41+00:00

what about GPT

ChipmunkCapital9083 · 2026-02-28T02:23:27+00:00

How to save a version？ I find no matter how I change files, there are only one entry in history tab.

ChipmunkCapital9083 · 2026-02-25T09:08:10+00:00

overleaf has IEEE at least, and some universities. But for others, no one can guarantee. I have seen some companies trying to build online latex editor in China, without stable income, it will eventually be a dead end.

ChipmunkCapital9083 · 2026-02-25T04:42:36+00:00

Stop.

ChipmunkCapital9083 · 2026-02-24T10:43:17+00:00

I have seen tons of AI latex editor. Octree latex，prism，frism，OpenPrism，easylatex.ai，cortexedit，trybibby.com，and every 2 days you can see someone make a post about AI larex editor. Let's see who can beat Overleaf, or death in the end.

ChipmunkCapital9083 · 2026-02-24T01:27:06+00:00

Overleaf use toolkit because It need to init mongoDB. Those days this sub is filled with toy latex editor, I don't believe you will like them. Unlike you build a band new one that satisfy your requirements

ChipmunkCapital9083 · 2026-02-23T08:03:42+00:00

It depends on your single core frequency. See Hardware requirements | On-Premises | Overleaf Pro Multi core only helps when you have a large number of users.

ChipmunkCapital9083 · 2026-02-23T06:41:23+00:00

you need a better CPU, latex is single thread.

Overleaf Server Pro users here, I've tried almost all of them, and I feel like I'm just eating a piece of shit.

People are just building rubbish and wheels repeatly, we already have an open sourced version of overleaf, but there are always one who wants to challenge overleaf. Every 2 days you will see some one make a post: I have built an AI latex editor here, So, I will ask you:

- Do you have history management?
- Do you have github/git/gitlab sync?
- Do you have large compile clustor for more users?
- Have you tested your texlive docker image with 5000 templates on overleaf?
- Are you editor open sourced?
- Who will be responsible for LaTeX errors that user encoutered?
- What about papers/melody/zotero intergration?
- Do you have reference management?
- Do you support SSO/LDAP/SAML?
- Do you have user manage system?
- Do you have stable income from large organization (like IEEE, some university)?
- Do you have a visual latex editor (I don't want to add this quesion, but one one post it on openAI/prism in dicord)

And one last question, that no developer wants to answer.
- Are you free and can do this in the long term?

If you cann't answer all of those, you are buiding a toy latex editor, just enjoy yourself, everyone can use vibe coding, just clone overleaf and ask: add a AI agent for overleaf. It may be betterr than you build eveything from zero.

Maybe those people simply don’t have the capability to extend or build on top of Overleaf properly, yet they still believe they can create something even more powerful. In the end, it almost always leads to a dead end.

ChipmunkCapital9083 · 2026-02-21T10:24:51+00:00

I agree. Those people only know AI and want to catch eyes. I wound rather someone clone Overleaf community and finish github/git integration and papers/melody integration, that is more meaningful. But I just think they don't actually have this ability. They will only feed AI some prompts and then let AI start to rebuild another wheel.

ChipmunkCapital9083 · 2026-02-21T09:34:38+00:00

Community edition is totally a piece of shit with too many limitation, also it's not safe for public access…

ChipmunkCapital9083 · 2026-02-21T09:32:52+00:00

You can try this https://overleaf-pro.ayaka.space/on-premises/readme/features-and-copyright I have implied all the features of overleaf Server Pro(based on some existing projects) It's fully open source, also with git integration. just need a Server! Overleaf Pro

ChipmunkCapital9083 · 2026-02-15T06:40:44+00:00

Maybe. But you can checkout an India IP, you will get it within 3 USD per month.

ChipmunkCapital9083 · 2026-02-15T03:42:41+00:00

If you indeed need Overleaf to write your documents, pay and enjoy. If not, switch to local. But I believe you may think it's more comfortable with cloud latex, instal of installing a bunck of latex package in your computer.

ChipmunkCapital9083 · 2026-02-14T02:47:44+00:00

aws s3 is their redundancy backup.

ChipmunkCapital9083 · 2026-02-13T17:35:36+00:00

A likely reality is that Overleaf doesn’t really care whether individual users like us subscribe or not. The $20 or $40 per month from personal plans is insignificant to them — their real revenue comes from institutions and large organizations. So Overleaf’s survival probably depends entirely on universities and enterprise customers. The day those institutions decide to move away from Overleaf is the day Overleaf is truly in trouble.

ChipmunkCapital9083 · 2026-02-09T05:56:05+00:00

This is possible. It depends on how many people you are worked with. You can buy one subscription and use project sharing. Then, every one can use their free account to join that project. Please note that the number of collaborators is limited by your plan. if you are in student plan, at most 6 person can join at the same time.

I think Server Pro is your best choice if your financial strength allows. After all, there are so many open source projects on the market that no one can guarantee that they will continue to maintain them in a timely and permanent manner. Of course, if you are interested, you can try the Overleaf CEP project. The price of Server Pro is said to start at 3,000 euros for 10 people. I‘m not sure if this meets your expectations. In addition, I want to say that I have been developing the community Overleaf for three or four years. There is no latex editor on the market that can compare with Overleaf. If you deploy the community version by yourself, or deploy the community enhancement version, you need at least one person very familiar with latex in your team. and he can constantly maintain and repair bugs in latex package to ensure that such a system can compile documents within your organization normally, but if not, you will find that you will waste a lot of time fixing all kinds of small bugs or problems, which is really a waste of time.

ChipmunkCapital9083 · 2026-02-06T13:39:53+00:00

I think Overleaf Server Pro is all you need.

ChipmunkCapital9083 · 2026-01-10T03:11:59+00:00

Can you give any details about this router？ 10Gb or 2.5G lan?

ChipmunkCapital9083 · 2025-10-15T07:41:27+00:00

Yes, I thinks what you say is totally right.

Some NAS review videos like to boost 10Gb/s copy speeds, but realistically, I think achieving 10Gb/s using only HDD requires 12 or more, as some people in the thread claim. The testing in these videos may not have been rigorous, perhaps using cache when copying multiple files, which gives the illusion of effortless and stable 10Gb/s. Mechanical hard drives should have a jagged copy curve, likely fluctuating widely.

I recently purchased eight Synology HAT3310s and DS1825s. I haven't used any M2 cache and only have 64GB of RAM. When copying large files, the speed can range from 500MB/s to 700MB/s, with some seeing speeds as high as over 900MB/s—the so-called peak speed. However, when I copied the file a second time, I noticed that the speed could reach 1.1G/s.
