Unlike plain text editor, you +can't just write a plain text using LaTeX editors. Here, you will have to +utilize LaTeX commands in order to manage the content of the document. + +![LaTex Sample][2]![LaTex Sample][3] + +LaTex Editors are generally used to publish scientific research documents or +books for academic purposes. Most importantly, LaText editors come handy while +dealing with a document containing complex Mathematical notations. Surely, +LaTeX editors are fun to use. But, not that useful unless you have specific +needs for a document. + +## Why should you use LaTex? + +Well, just like I previously mentioned, LaTeX editors are meant for specific +purposes. You do not need to be a geek head in order to figure out the way to +use LaTeX editors but it is not a productive solution for users who deal with +basic text editors. + +If you are looking to craft a document but you are not interested in spending +time formatting the text, then LaTeX editors should be the one you should go +for. With LaTeX editors, you just have to specify the type of document, and +the text font and sizes will be taken care of accordingly. No wonder it is +considered one of the [best open source tools for writers][4]. + +Do note that it isn't something automated, you will have to first learn LaTeX +commands to let the editor handle the text formatting with precision. + +## 10 Of The Best LaTeX Editors For Linux + +Just for information, the list is not in any specific order. Editor at number +three is not better than the editor at number seven. + +### 1\. Lyx + +![][2] + +![][5] + +Lyx is an open source LaTeX Editor. In other words, it is one of the best +document processors available on the web.LyX helps you focus on the structure +of the write-up, just as every LaTeX editor should and lets you forget about +the word formatting. LyX would manage whatsoever depending on the type of +document specified. You get to control a lot of stuff while you have it +installed. The margins, headers/footers, spacing/indents, tables, and so on. + +If you are into crafting scientific documents, research thesis, or similar, +you will be delighted to experience Lyx's formula editor which should be a +charm to use. LyX also includes a set of tutorials to get started without much +of a hassle. + +[Lyx][6] + +### 2\. Texmaker + +![][2] + +![][7] + +Texmaker is considered to be one of the best LaTeX editors for GNOME desktop +environment. It presents a great user interface which results in a good user +experience. It is also crowned to be one among the most useful LaTeX editor +there is.If you perform PDF conversions often, you will find TeXmaker to be +relatively faster than other LaTeX editors. You can take a look at a preview +of what the final document would look like while you write. Also, one could +observe the symbols being easy to reach when needed. + +Texmaker also offers an extensive support for hotkeys configuration. Why not +give it a try? + +[Texmaker][8] + +### 3\. TeXstudio + +![][2] + +![][9] + +If you want a LaTeX editor which offers you a decent level of customizability +along with an easy-to-use interface, then TeXstudio would be the perfect one +to have installed. The UI is surely very simple but not clumsy. TeXstudio lets +you highlight syntax, comes with an integrated viewer, lets you check the +references and also bundles some other assistant tools. + +It also supports some cool features like auto-completion, link overlay, +bookmarks, multi-cursors, and so on - which makes writing a LaTeX document +easier than ever before. + +TeXstudio is actively maintained, which makes it a compelling choice for both +novice users and advanced writers. + +[TeXstudio][10] + +### 4\. Gummi + +![][2] + +![][11] + +Gummi is a very simple LaTeX editor based on the GTK+ toolkit. Well, you may +not find a lot of fancy options here but if you are just starting out - Gummi +will be our recommendation.It supports exporting the documents to PDF format, +lets you highlight syntax, and helps you with some basic error checking +functionalities. Though Gummi isn't actively maintained via GitHub it works +just fine. + +[Gummi][12] + +### 5\. TeXpen + +![][2] + +![][13] + +TeXpen is yet another simplified tool to go with. You get the auto-completion +functionality with this LaTeX editor. However, you may not find the user +interface impressive. If you do not mind the UI, but want a super easy LaTeX +editor, TeXpen could fulfill that wish for you.Also, TeXpen lets you +correct/improve the English grammar and expressions used in the document. + +[TeXpen][14] + +### 6\.

It also includes a free +plan where you can sync with GitHub, check your revision history, and add +multiple collaborators. + +There's a limit on the number of files you can create per project - so it +could bother if you are a professional working with LaTeX documents most of +the time. + +[Overleaf][18] + +### 8\. Authorea + +![][2] + +![][19] + +Authorea is a wonderful online LaTeX editor. However, it is not the best out +there - when considering the pricing plans. For free, it offers just 100 MB of +data upload limit and 1 private document at a time. The paid plans offer you +more perks but it may not be the cheapest from the lot.The only reason you +should choose Authorea is the user interface. If you love to work with a tool +offering an impressive user interface, there's no looking back. + +[Authorea][20] + +### 9\. Papeeria + +![][2] + +![][21] + +Papeeria is the cheapest LaTeX editor you can find on the Internet - +considering it is as reliable as the others. You do not get private projects +if you want to utilize it for free. But, if you prefer public projects it lets +you work on an unlimited number of projects with numerous collaborators. It +features a pretty simple plot builder and includes Git sync for no additional +cost.If you opt for the paid plan, it will empower you with the ability to +work on 10 private projects. + +[Papeeria][22] + +### 10\.
