Get started with LaTeX using Overleaf: ► https://www.overleaf.com/?utm_source=yt&utm_medium=link&utm_campaign=im22tb. My thanks to Overleaf for sponsoring today's video. Check out the previous videos in my LaTeX playlist: ►https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHXZ9OQGMqxcWWkx2DMnQmj5os2X5ZR73 0:00 Getting Started 0:28 New Commands 1:58 Conditional Formatting 4:23 Write your own package 5:37 Multiple Files 8:18 Tracking Changes 9:25 Be Semantic 12:31 Cleveref 15:34 Template Files 16:18 www.overleaf.com Today is all about my top tricks and tips to write efficiently in LaTeX. This video isn't going to change how your math documents look, but they will make it was easier to write them. We will see how to use \newcommand to replace long common expressions with short ones, see how to use if statements to conditionally format documents, put the preamble into an included style sheet, break your big project into multiple chapters, using Overleaf features like history and tracking changes, being semantic so you focus on meaning as opposed to formatting, and finally using template files. For more information on writing your own package as I briefly did in the video moving the preamble into its own package, check out a more detailed guide here: https://www.overleaf.com/learn/latex/Writing_your_own_package Check out my MATH MERCH line in collaboration with Beautiful Equations ►https://beautifulequations.net/pages/trefor COURSE PLAYLISTS: ►DISCRETE MATH: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHXZ9OQGMqxersk8fUxiUMSIx0DBqsKZS ►LINEAR ALGEBRA: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHXZ9OQGMqxfUl0tcqPNTJsb7R6BqSLo6 ►CALCULUS I: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHXZ9OQGMqxfT9RMcReZ4WcoVILP4k6-m ► CALCULUS II: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHXZ9OQGMqxc4ySKTIW19TLrT91Ik9M4n ►MULTIVARIABLE CALCULUS (Calc III): https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHXZ9OQGMqxc_CvEy7xBKRQr6I214QJcd ►VECTOR CALCULUS (Calc IV) https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHXZ9OQGMqxfW0GMqeUE1bLKaYor6kbHa ►DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHXZ9OQGMqxde-SlgmWlCmNHroIWtujBw ►LAPLACE TRANSFORM: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHXZ9OQGMqxcJXnLr08cyNaup4RDsbAl1 ►GAME THEORY: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHXZ9OQGMqxdzD8KpTHz6_gsw9pPxRFlX OTHER PLAYLISTS: ► Learning Math Series https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPH2lqis3D0&list=PLHXZ9OQGMqxfSkRtlL5KPq6JqMNTh_MBw ►Cool Math Series: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHXZ9OQGMqxelE_9RzwJ-cqfUtaFBpiho BECOME A MEMBER: ►Join: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9rTsvTxJnx1DNrDA3Rqa6A/join MATH BOOKS I LOVE (affilliate link): ► https://www.amazon.com/shop/treforbazett SOCIALS: ►Twitter (math based): http://twitter.com/treforbazett ►TikTok: http://tiktok.com/@drtrefor
