For those that are new to \(\LaTeX\) or beginning and intermediate users who need to expand their knowledge, there is the Not so Short Introduction to \(\LaTeX 2\varepsilon\).

It isn't exactly short but definitely isn't as long as a formal book on \(\TeX\) or \(\LaTeX\)

As of today, Overleaf has a great set of tutorials for anyone who is new to LaTeX:

(Check the left panel for the list of articles.)

After that, of course, there is Google for specific problems.

area = \pi r^2

into the box and you should see the following

$area = \pi r^2$

or try Einstein's equation:

E = m c^2

and see

$E = m c^2$
