Having experience with digitizing a university textbook in physics by hand, this is a very nice LaTeX guide for everyone interested. One thing worth noting from 2025 perspective that the "default" local setup is most likely going to be VSCode with LaTeX Workshop[1] and LTeX+[2] extensions, and that you should use TeX Live on every platform supported by it (since MiKTeX and friends can lag).

My first incursion in Typescript was with an online course very poorly given, and I'm sure that's what left the "daunting" mark on me. I wish totaltypescript.com existed back then.
