TeXbrain
A LaTeX editor that runs entirely in your browser
#1 of the day · 9 Sep 2026
TeXbrain compiles pdfTeX in the browser through WebAssembly: live preview, packages fetched when a document asks for them, and git integration. No account, no install, no server holding your document.
From the scout

Two ways to write LaTeX until now: a local install that takes an afternoon and four gigabytes, or a hosted editor that owns your document. This is the third. Packages pull on demand rather than shipping the whole distribution, which is what makes it plausible in a tab. Git integration means the version history is yours.
