Into the LaTeX Ecosystem

Usefull Packages

Your choice of packages is also something that you can customize. Here's a small list of the packages that I use mot often:

1. todonotes & easyReview for document annotation. I use these packages to leave notes to myself and also to communicate with my co-authors. They both provide different commands that I use often to leave annotation bothe inline and on margins, mark text to be deleted, create temporary text, etc.
2. enumitem to customize list environments. With the inline argument, it allows me to create inline lists that I often find myself using (sometimes a bit too much...)
3. babel is a must if you intend to write in a language that is not english
4. booktabs to create much better tables that standard LaTeX
5. tikz to create drawings through LaTeX code. Very advanced.
