| # LaTeX | ||
| [LaTeX](https://www.latex-project.org/about/), which is pronounced «Lah-tech» or «Lay-tech», is a document preparation system for high-quality typesetting. It is most often used for medium-to-large technical or scientific documents but it can be used for almost any form of publishing. | ||

| ## Installing LaTeX on Mac | ||
|
|
||
| ## Installation | ||
| When installing LaTex, two following options are given to users. | ||
| 1. Install MacTeX with builtin editor(TexLive) - (2GB) | ||
| 1. Install MacTeX with builtin editor (TexLive) - (2GB) | ||
| 2. Install BasicTeX only (100MB) + your personal LaTeX editor | ||
|
|
||
| ### Option 1 (Full LaTeX installation with LaTeX editor): | ||
| ### MacTeX vs BasicTeX | ||
| MacTeX includes additional programs such as an editor and a BibTeX reference manager that help users to work with TeX outside of the command line. BasicTeX does not include these GUI programs. The trade-off that comes with using BasicTeX is that you will have to download and install additional packages and programs as the need arises- and BasicTeX is so basic that the need will arise. So, after installing BasicTeX you will be faced with the tasks of installing additional programs and installing missing packages. | ||
|
|
||
| ### Option 1 | ||
| Download [MacTex](http://www.tug.org/mactex/). | ||

|
||
| Since MaxTex installs an LaTex editor ([TexMaker](http://www.xm1math.net/texmaker/download.html)) already, installing another LaTeX editor is unnecessary. | ||
