AI Thread Summary
LaTeX is a typesetting system widely used in academic publishing, offering advantages in document layout, referencing, and mathematical typesetting. While it requires some coding knowledge, it is not overly complex, and many users find it manageable to learn quickly. Alternatives like LyX provide a more user-friendly, WYSIWYG interface for those hesitant about coding. Embracing the project is encouraged, as mastering LaTeX can be beneficial for future academic endeavors.

You can use LyX for WYSIWYG-esque LaTeX editing: www.LyX.org

I've started out quite a few people on LyX and they have picked it up.

LaTeX is the de facto standard form academic publishing, and I'd highly recommend learning it. It tremendously simplifies referencing, document layout, and especially mathematics.
 


Furthermore, LaTeX is very easy. I teached it to myself in about an hour...

Really, accept the project. You'll be glad you did!
