Why take this course?

This course is open to anyone who wants to learn how to create a professional quality, typeset publication. In addition to improving the aesthetic quality of your work, LaTeX users benefit from automating many of the tedious processes involved in writing a professional publication.

LaTeX allows you to manage references, figures, tables, footnotes, formatting, mathematical equations, algorithms, scientific proofs, and more in a programmatic fashion that provides benefits far exceeding that of word processing software.

Need to format a paper for a specific venue? Many academic journals and conferences provide LaTeX Style files (.sty) for correctly typesetting your submission. With one line of code, you can modify your publication to match the style of many leading academic publishing outlets.

Not writing a paper? LaTeX can also be used for books, reports, technical and business documents, screenplays, resumes, letters ... anything you want to write!

The course uses tools that are freely available online for Mac (Linux) and Windows users. Templates are included for download to get you started.

Es algo sesgado porque solo resuelve los inconvenientes con el sistema operativo OS y no con windows ni tampoco Linux.

Easy to follow along. Some packages may be outdated, like the algpseudocodex package. More depth would be helpful.

Nice lecture, the professor knows in depth the functionalities of LaTeX but i would prefer more opportunities to practice. Also the sound quality was poor and the video seems to be a little old. Nice effort though, and thanks for the LaTeX adventure.

Some of the content was useful, but explaining the basics of Latex and the tools for using it was a little light. Were the installing documents written in Latex? I would have preferred text or word or pdfs.

Teacher is well versed with the techniques but lacks in the instructional part. Needs to be more imperative. Some of the things taught were not working.

Pretty great course covering the introduction to mid-advanced techniques on LaTeX. Was new to the subject yet am walking away with a pretty decent fundamental understanding of how to manipulate, create and make use of the functionality LaTeX provides. Absolutely recommend if you need a quick spin up on the topic!

Great course! It helps to write our documents with a better customization than other software. The syntax might be hard to understand at the beginning but by creating various objects (tables, lists, graphics), we get used to it. There are many things to discover but you will have the basics.

The lectures were useful and clearly explained. The notes and provided resources were helpful. Great resource to get started coding Latex fast. This course shoud have been named "Intro To Latex". Several important points and functionalties were not gone over and explained. The course was short and does not prepare the user for several troubles they will encounter when using LaTeX.

A very good hands on explanation on LaTex. Good approach followed to teach the basic core concepts and live demos make the things easy to understand.

I had no idea what LaTeX is at the beginning of course. After completion i understood how it works basically. The lecturer explains everything very clearly. I also got some tips to improve my LaTeXing.

It was quite a good review as I have been working with LaTeX. I was well refreshed. I will recommend this course to any beginner of LaTeX. I will be grateful if the course content is updated. This is 2022.
