Can't handwrite, any software alternative for math?

2 points by kathe 4y ago ↗ HN

I haven't handwritten since 1997 and I now need to re-study mathematics from the very beginning for which I'm planning to use the material shared by OpenStax (https://openstax.org/subjects/math) with the GeoGebra tools (https://www.geogebra.org/). Is there any software application (preferably running under GNU/Linux, or Web-based) which I could use to work through the problems mentioned in the OpenStax curriculum? Essentially, a replacement for handwriting using pen/pencil and paper!

Writing maths in LaTeX is the preferred choice. I used Texmaker https://www.xm1math.net/texmaker/ on GNU/Linux the license it GPL-2.0-or-later. Overleaf https://www.overleaf.com/learn/latex/ can be used online, but this is not for me.

A nice python package is handcalcs. https://github.com/connorferster/handcalcs This can be used with jupyter notebooks see this as examples https://medium.com/@zumaia/python-calculations-in-jupyter-li...
