tinytex | maintain LaTeX distribution based on TeX Live

tinytex is a R library typically used in Latex applications. tinytex has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities and it has medium support. However tinytex has a Non-SPDX License. You can download it from GitHub.

The motivation behind TinyTeX was from two common problems in installing and maintaining LaTeX distributions:. I believe these problems can be solved by TinyTeX, a custom LaTeX distribution based on TeX Live that is small in size but still functions well in most cases. Even if you run into the problem of missing LaTeX packages, it should be super clear to you what you need to do. In fact, if you are an R Markdown user, there is nothing you need to do, because missing packages will just be installed automatically. You may not even know the existence of LaTeX at all since it should rarely bother you. This repo contains the installation scripts of TinyTeX (under the tools directory) and the R companion package tinytex. Please see the full documentation at Obviously I hope it is not too long. The R package tinytex is licensed under MIT. The LaTeX distribution TinyTeX is licensed under GPL-2.
