LaTeX Lab, a web-based (collaborative) LaTeX editor

LaTeX Lab is a web-based L^aT_eX, using Google Docs as its platform so you'll need a Google login to try it out. Since “sharing” a document is a default feature in Google Docs, LaTeX Lab can be used as an online collaborative editor.



Once saved, your L^aT_eX file will show up in your Google Docs file list, but you must access open it again via the LaTeX Lab link to get the L^aT_eX editor GUI. Opening the file from Google Docs will just show it as a plain text file, without the L^aT_eX syntax highlighting and toolbars etc.

However it’s still a preview release, so you probably don’t want to depend on it for your day-to-day use just yet!
