LaTeX Script v1.4.1

This release comprises minor content changes and typo fixes. Moreover, we added information on how to use VS Code or VS Codium to follow along. Full Changelog: v1.4...v1.4.1

LaTeX Script v1.4

This release splits the original script into three parts: a theoretical introduction to LaTeX, a set of exercises, and a document containing the respective solutions. We did so to reduce compile time and overall complexity. Moreover, we changed the order of the chapters to spend more time on reference management. Code listings are now the last feature to be introduced. Some bugs with the exercises and solutions were solved, particularly regarding labels and captions for listings and general listing configuration.

LaTeX Script v1.3

This release is mainly fixing bugs. A minipage problem concerning the exercises had been introduced with the previous release and is now fixed. Moreover, we no longer rely on the fontawesome package to prevent font rendering issues on macOS with certain screen resolutions and DPIs. “Text markup” and “Formatting paragraphs,” two smaller chapters, have been merged. The same happened to “References” and “Footnotes.”

LaTeX Script v1.2

This release is mainly fixing bugs, typos, and lonely German-language artifacts. The chapter on source code listings has been moved further to the back, while the reference management exercise was slightly altered. We dropped any mentions of the eurosym package as LaTeX's standard font supports typing the UTF8 symbol directly.

LaTeX Script v1.1

The LaTeX Script, including all exercises, is now available in English. Besides this, the use of the minted package for source code listings is now optional, lowering the barrier to entry for beginners, and mitigating Python and Pygments installation issues on Windows/macOS. Of course, we also added a section on how to set source code with the new default, lstlistings. minted fans (including ourselves) can still render the script with this package instead. Have a look at the respective section in the script on how to switch between the two.
