• Should I have to edit my PhD students dissertation for basic grammar?

• Users of LaTeX

  Other editors like curvenote.com mix the two, with a google docs/word like interface that has support for LaTeX like features - bib files, citations, figures and tables with captions, numbering cross referencing etc... And can still report to latex. Sometime collaborating in LaTeX is hard as not all collaborators are happy using it, meaning word or google docs sometimes becomes the lowest common demoninator and is... Source: over 2 years ago

• I am looking for recommendations for online software to write a thesis

• Sort of off topic, what is the programmers' preferred way to make documents?

  Curvenote.com has an online document editor that can export latex, pdf, docx and MD but also brings in Jupyter notebooks - it also has acli toolallowing you to create websites from markdown and Jupyter notebooks. For sharing, it has a command line tool that let's you delpoy a website from Markdown & ipynb files - there is a tool to launch one from github too. Source: over 2 years ago

• Many write research papers in R Markdown - What is the alternative setup in Python?

  You should look at Curvenote https://curvenote.com/ it's aimed specifically at that crazy copy-paste workflow you described. It adds some version control to the Juptyer notebook so you can link and update your figures. It's different from quarto in that you can use it on the command line or via a web-based editor and it extends Jupyter with some additional controls. Source: over 2 years ago

• documentation including code

  I have been working on curvenote.com that is built out of those ideas. It integrates into jupyter through an extension and there is a client library at the moment to export into latex or md or pdf. One of the things I found when creating these reports is working with collaborators was really hard, especially integrating their feedback/edits into my workflows, and like you said, the code is often secondary.
