I really wish there was a way to have shared editing on a doc, similar to google docs, that used LaTex.

I often have to share docs for work (in google docs) and the lack of a clear way to format as eloquently as LaTex makes me not even try.

Overleaf (https://overleaf.com/) is pretty popular for this, and also tracks things like edit history
Unfortunately, it doesn't allow you to bring your own editor, so I have to put up with its half-assed implementation of Vim.
It doesn't work super well during live collaboration, but Overleaf does allow git access to the underlying document: https://www.overleaf.com/learn/how-to/Using_Git_and_GitHub
Have you tried overleaf?
Something like overleaf.com ?
