If your plans differ, please take precautions! Step 0: Update & upgrade I installed my Instance as root on a local Server, that will never be seen by the Internet. So you should just use google to translate my Steps to your System. If you got a differing System, the Step will be similar but not the same. I just created a new Instance on a new Debian-10 Server, so these Steps will be shown here. But I will save you those hours and show you in this article, how to easily install Overleaf Community Edition for free on your own Server. Obviously I chose the latter option and got into hours of work, because I did not know, what I was doing. Now there are two possibilities: either you get a paid subscription to get more compilation-time or you setup your own instance of overleaf on your own server.
At least that ist true for my thesis-template I got. But once you get to writing bigger essays or a thesis, the basic free version does not have enough resources to compile your complex document. There is a free version to use on their Cloud, for for simple assignments one can use that. It also comes with all latex-extensions – so there is no more searching for how to install X and Y.
It gives you a split-screen on the web with a good editor on the left and your compiled PDF on the right. It’s a web-based multi-user platform for creating latex-documents. Using LaTeX regularly for University, i was once searching for a good and easy way to write my latex-files.
