Summary
Overleaf is an open source collaborative latex editor. It can be installed on your own server then provides a web interface for multiple users to edit, compile, and view the document. It is now heavily used in academia especially. It would be useful to include it as a freedombox app to reduce the difficultly of installation.
Solution
There are a few sites with regular install instructions available, such as
However AFAIK they are mostly using a method based on docker and containers, which might not be suitable for smaller freedomboxes. It is hard to find install instructions which don’t rely on containers.
Tasks
Look around for any more suitable install instructions
If available, use them. Otherwise would need to study the source code directly.
Package overleaf first as a regular debian package
Then figure out how to wrap it as a freedombox app.
