In resulted pdf there're weird spacings all over the document. Figures are referenced by manually indexing them rather by name. No hyperlinks. Equations have no numbering. Some equations/formulas in text aren't using math mode. (For units better use the siunitx package.) Bibliography is basically simple text rather generated, making it hard to switch to other styles.

Regarding the editor, seems math and text cannot be written together. Copying math and pasting to text field results in pasting LaTeX code.

Now if just said made this because wanted to wouldn't have mentioned it, but as you provide a reasoning, LyX (LaTeX frontend) and TeXmacs (not frontend but can export to LaTeX) provide a way to get LaTeX documents without writing LaTeX.

Overall the site can function as cool math-enabled notepad but (for now at least) seems hard to use it as platform to author papers.

Hey! The LaTeX feature is still brand new and I'm looking on improving it, thanks for the feedback. The PDF export seems to be misinterpreting the code blocks, I'll have a fix out tonight! (Edit: done!)

I would describe it as more than a math-enabled notepad with support for 6 other scientific block types and the ability to run code. However, I agree that it's definitely not built to write full blown scientific papers at this stage :)
