Steps of writing in Authorea

Writing in paragraphs and chunks of text

The most obvious feature for any text editor is the ability to write or compose paragraphs of thought across the electronic surface. We need a few things here: how speedy and responsive is the app to fast typing, the fonts, the responsiveness of teh screen, and optionally, grammar and spell checks as we make errors. Happily enough, in all these sections, the new Authorea interface performs remarkably well. I tested Authorea on Google Chrome in Windows 7 and also on Safari on a Macbook and in each occasion, it worked well for me.

Adding Analyses and Diagrams

YOu can analyse in R, or a Stata or indeed anywhere. YOu can generate markdown tables and directly importa import them here. I If you use the dropdown Insert box and then insert the exported table fromyour your software, yo are all set. If you do not now know how to do so, yu you can export your data in teh form of csv files and then you can use a web base dservi services to convrt csv tables to markdown tables and iport import them here. Dig Diagrams are eseentially just one stap step ro process of creating and adding there them here.

Adding Tabular data

You can add tables in two ways or thre three ways:

ou You can directly use the drop down table builder to build and structure your tables
You can use the mad markdown mode to create yout your tables
YOu can use the latex mode to create your tables
For both 2 nand 3 if you do not n know how to do so, you can use web based services such as rtube truben.no, and tablesgenerator.com to generate tale tables and add the codes here.

Adding Citations

You can use cite button on the toolbox toolbar abovethe the editor to write.

Mixing LaTeX and Markdown in the same text: does it help?

I have seen that this works well where we can switch between writing in LaTeX and markdown where needed and then switching in between. This is done by inserting code blocks in the form of LaTeX and markdown.
