LaTeX Salon
Multiplayer in-browser LaTeX workspace with live rendering and peer-to-peer sync
Visit latex.salon ↗What is LaTeX Salon?
LaTeX Salon is a browser-based collaborative LaTeX editor designed for quick math sessions and group problem-solving without the friction of full document platforms. It offers live KaTeX preview as you type, real-time peer-to-peer synchronization in shared rooms via WebRTC, and shared cursors similar to Google Docs. No login or backend storage is required—collaboration happens directly between peers.
The tool supports both mixed mode (plain text with embedded math) and classic mode (all math rendering), plus features like PNG/PDF export, matrix and table insertion helpers, and custom command shortcuts. It includes a single-player mode for personal use and preliminary mobile support. The maker describes it as vibe-coded.
