I started with TeXworks (+ XeTeX, which both happen to have been created by Jonathan Kew) and I found no reason to change since then. The only slight drawback is that autocomplete support exists but is rudimentary, however it doesn’t bother me that much.
Which editor do you prefer?
Neovim with vimtex and texlab language server. Learning nvim takes some time, but I made preconfig, which allows to start a bit easier
I second this. Getting started started takes some effort, but writing in Neovim is such a joy on its own. Especially implementing comments from other people is much faster and if you use git, you can also easily switch back to earlier versions and/or compare your changes.
Plus there’s kickstart.nvim if you want a more general-purpose starting point. I’m actually switching to it as a starting point now, and figuring out how to transfer anything I need from my old vimrc.
VS Code with the LaTeX workshop plugin. Works like a charm. You need to have LaTeX installed in your system
Vim + TeX Live on Gentoo
Currently I just use Overleaf for my current research.
Overleaf, because I don’t have to download an application.
I was using TexStudio, but eventually I landed on Emacs – the keyboard shortcuts it provides are very convenient. For managing references, I use JabRef to maintain the biblatex file.
I’m basic and just use vim for writing the document and zathura for a PDF reader. Recently started using lualatex over pdflatex for compiling due to some max memory error on a poster with a ton of graphs.
Nvim. autopair.nvim let’s you autoclose “begin[]” macros. Luasnip let’s you create custom snippets for every macro you use. I also use Emmet LSP for inline svg.
I use TeXShop (+BasicTeX) instead of TeXworks (I slightly prefer its UI on a Mac, but it’s pretty much the same) if I’m working somewhere with bad internet / because it’s useful to have a local TeX editor, or Overleaf for quite a lot of stuff, because convenience.
neovim+zathura+lualatex
TeXStudio for the convenience of compiling and managing multi-file projects; (neo)vim for serious work with the tex files.
MiKTeX, because it’s the first one I stumbled upon in high school and I don’t use LaTeX enough to be bothered to optimize my choice of editor.
I myself use TeXStudio with a texlive-full install. I may switch to something else, but currently it is a convenient setup.
emacs
TexStudio, the multi view and jump to source/output is great on big projects. Zotero macro is very helpful. Compile/clean buttons that also work on multi file projects are huge time savers.
