texMini

LaTeX that just works, without managing a full TeX installation.

Install uv, open a LaTeX project, and run:

uvx texmini paper.tex

texMini verifies a private TinyTeX runtime, discovers and installs missing TeX Live packages, then builds with managed latexmk. It preserves ordinary LaTeX projects and incremental state while avoiding a system TeX installation.

uvx texmini --watch paper.tex
uvx texmini --engine xelatex paper.tex
uvx texmini --shell-escape minted-paper.tex

pdfLaTeX, LuaLaTeX, XeLaTeX, BibTeX, Biber, indices, glossaries, nomenclatures, minted, Beamer, multifile projects, latexmkrc, custom output layouts, SyncTeX, cleanup, diagnostics, and watch mode remain supported. Use uv tool install texmini for a persistent command.

Supported runtimes: macOS Apple Silicon/x86-64, Linux glibc x86-64/ARM64, Linux musl x86-64, and Windows x86-64. macOS and Linux need Perl.

Official TinyTeX artifacts are release-pinned and SHA-256 verified. Shell escape is never enabled implicitly.

See the complete documentation and safety model.
