   IPE has close LaTeX integration

   I find IPE to be a life-savior when it comes to generating physics illustrations which come with their share of math toppings. The editor has nice utilities for latching on to the boundaries, intersection, center etc of geometric figures. The spline tool is the best I have seen anywhere. Layers are handled with grace. LaTeX is rendered instantly. It is very easy to produce a multipage document. What more can one possibly want?

   🏁 Competitors: Airtable, PGF and TikZ, LaTeXDraw

   👍 Pros:    Produces multipage documents|Possible to include latex style files and includes|Live rendering of latex blocks, not just math|Very easy to add stepwise revelations|Comes with a presenter that understands notes|Produced pdf can be easily included in latex documents|Completely free and open source

   👎 Cons:    May be difficult to figure some things right out of the box

• Anyone know if there's diagram/flowchart software that can create charts based on text "tree-structure" input, rather than creating shapes and dragging them around?

  I just found Textgrago (https://textografo.com) which is perfect, but has a monthly cost. Only $4/pm, so not too bad if I can't find anything else. Source: over 1 year ago
