I'm currently writing a report in using Overleaf. As I'm getting the premium version for free through my Uni, I've had no problems so far. Now I'm working in a place with unstable internet and using Overleaf has become very annoying.

Are there some good FOSS alternatives out there, preferably where I can just upload my Project.zip and continue working offline? I have no need to collaborate with anyone or anything like that.

Currently I'm looking at LyX, but I'd be happy to hear about your experiences with that or other programs.

I'm writing a thesis using https://typst.app

I was hesitant to use it at the beginning but in the end, it's one of the best choice I made so far.

Out of curiosity, what program are you using to write? I think I saw they have a web editor, but I there’s a neovim plugin (and maybe an LSP) as well I think.

Vscode with typst-preview plugin. A wonderful combo.
