Where can I find a simple LaTex tutorial for math software?

In summary, there are many online resources available for finding LaTex tutorials, such as Overleaf, ShareLaTex, and the official LaTex website. You can also find tutorials on YouTube and through blogs and articles. It is recommended to choose a platform with a user-friendly interface and to have a basic understanding of coding and formatting. Free tutorials are available, but some advanced ones may require a fee. Whether you can access the tutorial offline depends on the platform, so it is recommended to save important resources for future reference.

There used to be (and perhaps is) a post that contained a simple LaTex tutorial. Since there is now a "Math Software and LaTex" section, I suggest putting an obvious link to the post in that section or making it a sticky thread there. A sticky with links to video tutorials about LaTex in the Math Software and LaTex section would also be a "logical" organization of information.
