# Latex
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Latex is a language/ecosystem that compiles to html/pdf probably some other formats aswell.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
TeXlive is the software package that manages most of the tools.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`tlmgr` is the cli that manages installation of packages
|
||
|
|
`pdflatex` is the cli that converts .tex files to pdfs
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Installation of texlive
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Non-interactive default installation on anything but Windows:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
cd /tmp # working directory of your choice
|
||
|
|
wget https://mirror.ctan.org/systems/texlive/tlnet/install-tl-unx.tar.gz # or curl instead of wget
|
||
|
|
zcat < install-tl-unx.tar.gz | tar xf -
|
||
|
|
cd install-tl-*
|
||
|
|
perl ./install-tl --no-interaction # as root or with writable destination
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Finally, prepend `/usr/local/texlive/YYYY/bin/PLATFORM` to your `PATH`,
|
||
|
|
e.g., `/usr/local/texlive/2023/bin/x86_64-linux `
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Installation of packages
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
First you need to run
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
`tlmgr init-usertree` -> this should create a `~/texmf` directory
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Then we can install packages/fonts like so:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
tlmgr install fira
|
||
|
|
```
|
