Description

TeXworks is an environment for authoring TeX (LaTeX, ConTeXt, etc) documents, with a Unicode-based, TeX-aware editor, integrated PDF viewer, and a clean, simple interface accessible to casual and non-technical users.

TeXworks is inspired by Dick Koch's award-winning TeXShop program for Mac OS X, which has made quality typesetting through TeX accessible to a wider community of users, without a technical or intimidating face. The goal of TeXworks is to deliver a similarly integrated, easy-to-use environment for users on other platforms, especially GNU/Linux and Windows.

Among other things, TeXworks features an integrated PDF previewer, synchronization between the TeX files and the PDF output, and an extensible scripting interface.

To use the TeX distribution provided by flathub, install it via

flatpak install org.freedesktop.Sdk.Extension.texlive//25.08
