**Reviewed Date:** July 26, 2022

It is very user-friendly and the whole UI is just a charm. The compiler is very fast making it one of the best LaTeX IDEs available.

**What do you dislike about TeXstudio?**

This might sound like a small thing, but the splash screen is very outdated and flat. Given all the great features implemented in the software I just wished the developers also paid a bit of attention to cosmetic side of things too.

Compiling LaTeX documents in an offline environment

**Reviewed by:** Noelle T. | Researcher, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 08, 2021

**What do you like best about TeXstudio?**

Have you ever sat for like 10 hours fighting with MS Word to format something the way you want? And MS Word keeps screwing up the margins or moving things around? Yeah so have I. Being able to write beautiful documents by command line is a savior. It looks the way I want instead of the other way around. No more fighting with MS Word!

Nothing. I haven't had issues with TeXStudio

**What problems is TeXstudio solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I need to write papers which sometimes include equations or formulas, and forget that in MS Word.

  ### 7. A great LaTeX Editor for modern times

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Samuel C. | Full Stack Developer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 02, 2021

**What do you like best about TeXstudio?**

There is a lot to love in TeXstudio. There's a well-implemented dark mode, everything is customizable, it's easy to install, there's git and svn integration, you can choose how to generate your previews, if any, and the list goes on.

Whenever I have to use Windows to build some LaTeX documents (sometimes over 2000 pages long), TeXstudio is my go-to GUI. Add on the fact that it's free, and it's just ridiculous. Consider throwing a few dollars at them to encourage them to keep polishing this impressive software.

**What do you dislike about TeXstudio?**

Some of the options are a little further in than I would like. Like the output option, that lets you see the progress of your compilation which is in an odd place. The option to display line number also feels out of place.

**Recommendations to others considering TeXstudio:**

Given the price (free), it's not expensive to try if you're looking to make some documents. Trying it out for yourself is the best way to know if it's good for you.

**What problems is TeXstudio solving and how is that benefiting you?**

As I've mentioned, I make pretty big documents with a lot of sections and assets. TeXstudio lets me organize my work quickly and efficiently with things like "Define as explicit master" so I don't have to click the correct .tex file to compile; as long as I'm in the correct document, it's going to work. Having TeXstudio scan my files to detect labels and file names also saves a lot of time because I only have to open my master document, and I can stay in TeXstudio to open all of my other files.
