We've just rolled out an update to our auto-complete feature which should feel a lot more polished. It also now has 'snippets' built in, which are short sections of commonly used LaTeX code.

Just start typing a command and the menu will pop up with possible selections.

Fuzzy Matching

The new auto-complete uses fuzzy matching, so you can type shorthand like \fig then TAB to quickly create a figure environment, or \tab for a table.

Thank you

We'd like to say a huge thank you to the team and contributors behind the Ace Editor who wrote most of this functionality in the first place.
