Abstract:
Writing $\LaTeX$ code is necessary in our field, but to many of us it is also a pain to be endured. If you feel the same, this talk is your painkiller! — I will explain how a good text editor can make your life a lot easier with vscode serving as the example of such a text editor. There will also be some general remarks on common mistakes and best practices for $\LaTeX$ independent of the choice of text editor.
The slides of this talk are available here (of course they cannot capture the many live demo parts I did during the talk, especially on vscode). Originally I was asked to give a talk on $\LaTeX$ only.
