## What it is
An Obsidian plugin that makes typesetting LaTeX math as fast as handwriting through configurable snippets, text expansion, and editor enhancements like auto-fraction and matrix shortcuts. It is inspired by Gilles Castel's UltiSnips-based setup and ships with a customizable default snippet set.

## Use cases
- write latex math faster in obsidian notes
- expand shortcuts like sqx into sqrt{x}
- take lecture notes with fast equation typesetting
- auto-expand fractions while typing math
- customize text expansion snippets for latex
- speed up matrix and align environment editing

## When to choose
- you write lots of LaTeX math in Obsidian and want handwriting-speed input
- you want customizable, shareable text-expansion snippets for math
- you want editor conveniences like auto-fraction and matrix tab navigation

## When to avoid
- you don't use Obsidian as your note-taking editor
- you need full LaTeX document compilation rather than in-editor typesetting
- you only occasionally type math and don't want to learn snippet syntax
