Brief list of useful online tools for #LaTeX (#TeXLaTeX) users:
https://www.unicodeit.net to use Maths symbols on pages that do not support LaTeX (e.g. here)
https://www.tablesgenerator.com/latex_tables to generate tables without going mad
https://editor.codecogs.com to get an image of your equations you can copy-paste
https://detexify.kirelabs.org/classify.html to find what is the command for that less-used symbol you can never remember
https://www.doi2bib.org to get a well-formatted revtex bibliography from the doi of the paper
Do you have more to add? 
@j_bertolotti pandoc.org to print to epub etc?
@aadmaa Great tool, but I wouldn't classify something you need to install as a "online tool" 
@j_bertolotti aahh no
@j_bertolotti@mathstodon.xyz@mathstodon.xyz @aadmaa@mathstodon.xyz@mathstodon.xyz You can use it https://pandoc.org/try/ online. I use it all the time because I am too lazy to look up the commands. 
@j_bertolotti ooooh the doi2bib sounds amazing!!!
will definitely give it try
Reference management is such a pain in the butt
@j_bertolotti start by adding https:// in front of the ones you linked ;-)
@oblomov I genuinely thought it would work without 
@j_bertolotti I quite often use this tool I made just to check how a bit of maths notation is rendered https://checkmyworking.com/misc/makebigmaths/
@j_bertolotti this dev branch of excalidraw supports Latex: https://math.preview.excalidraw.com/#json=9tUeRK76h1BT2Y7CPwv-H,QuWZSIqkCnU6ydKTYkXbqQ
@baptnz @j_bertolotti http://www.overleaf.com allows you to create latex documents online. My collaborators use it so I started using it.
@j_bertolotti@mathstodon.xyz@mathstodon.xyz https://www.citedrive.com/en/ CiteDrive is a web-based reference manager (like Zotero etc.), and supports OverLeaf syncing for free. I recommend it to LaTeX newbies all the time because it is easy to use and available everywhere.
@j_bertolotti It's not a tool as the others… but:
https://texdoc.org/
Its a online version of #texdoc which allows you to access the #TeXLaTeX package documentation.
You may use the search funtionality or use the string you would pass to texdoc (see below) like
https://texdoc.org/serve/geometry/0
And in case you have LaTeX installed locally texdoc itself. (https://tug.org/texdoc/)
just type `texdoc package` and you get the docs.
For example the LaTeX intro is at:
`texdoc usrguide`
@j_bertolotti texdoc.org: online documentation for TeX packages
tex.stackexchange.com: q&a site about TeX/LaTeX and friends
@j_bertolotti
Mathpix (https://mathpix.com) allows you to scan part of your screen and on simple note and turn it in latex. It's not free but not too expensive. I used it a lot to create the slides (emacs + org-mode + beamer + metropolis theme + Inkscape) of my course on advanced calculus (for bachelor) from a supporting text book, and I saved a lot of time, avoiding rewriting tons of equations.
