    ✍️ A way to integrate LaTeX, VS Code, and Inkscape in macOS

    First of all, I'm still sad that we lost Gilles Castel in 2022, RIP. I myself implemented Gilles Castel's solution in VSCode in this repo, and took ~10 rigorous notes (each around 100 pages) in class, and I'm happy with the result. Some post-production is needed, but I only use my free time to do so. Hence it's all fine. After you get proficient, you can literally do everything in real time, as I'm currently doing. I think it's essential to understand your tool well if you're going to work with it in the next decades (I'm assuming this for you, but if you're not, then nevermind), hence some investment is not meaningless.

    I haven’t used Windows in a while so I’m not sure how well Neovim works in it, but I would imagine it’s fine; you can find the installation instructions here. If you have any issues you can see if the folks at r/neovim can help out.
