My workflow

Here’s a list of tools I use on a regular basis.

I use Mac OS. Most of what I do involves R and $L A T E X$ . I also like to play with Python, HTML and CSS. I use $L A T E X$ for everything I typeset: papers, slides, posters—I also used it for my PhD thesis and my book. I have recently started to use Quarto to generate my tex files too, but that is still $L A T E X$ . I have tried Typst, and I think it’s worth considering too. When I have to use Word, I manage my references with EndNote (Mendeley is another option). Here’s a list of tools I use.
