Users can compile basic LaTeX commands and instantly preview the rendered HTML5 document in the lower section of the app.

This extension streamlines the process of working with LaTeX by eliminating the need for complex setup or native applications for simple documents. Once compiled, documents can be printed directly to PDF format using the print UI. Powered by open-source technologies, LaTeX Editor offers a hassle-free, on-the-go solution for LaTeX enthusiasts and professionals alike. For complex documents, integration with native software is recommended.

Love it. Wish it would have all the functionality of https://crixet.com but it's very convenient as an extension!

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

LaTeX Editor does not require any sensitive permissions.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Chrome extension may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Chrome extension reputation on Chrome Web Store, the amount of time the Chrome extension has been around, and other signals about the Chrome extension. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Chrome extension.

LaTeX Editor has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
