PubTeX

This is a template for publicly hosting LaTeX files with GitHub actions.

It roughly works as follows:

1. You write your latex files as you would normally
2. Whenever you push your changes to main, your files are compiled and pushed to the gh-pages branch.
3. You can now download them directly or publish the branch with GitHub Pages

You also get this nice front page for free :)

Some examples

• Paper
• Slides
• Handout

Usage

1. Use this template (you only need to include the main branch)
2. List all .tex files you want to compile in .github/workflows/publish.yml under the files option
3. If you want to generate handouts for some Beamer slides, list those files under the handouts option
4. Create SSH deploy key
5. (optional) Enable GitHub Pages for the gh-pages branch
