Outliner. The Google Images Storyteller. Amaztype. Web of Letters. Libres enfants du savoir numérique. The TeX showcase. This is the TeX showcase, edited by Gerben Wierda. It contains extreme examples of what you can do with TeX, the typesetting engine from Donald Knuth, world famous mathematician, computer scientist and above all well known for TeX. I will try to keep this showcase small. For remarks on submissions, see at the end of this document. For an introduction to TeX, please visit the TUG "Getting Started" page, and especially the section on the first LaTeX document, and in this section the PDF file of example first document with embedded explanation. I want to add to this: You can compare a Word Processor (e.g. MS Word) setup to a TeX setup as a Camper (or RV) versus having a house and a car. Some things are, however, difficult to do in TeX. In this showcase, you will not only find examples of material prepared with TeX proper, but also with macro packages like LaTeX, ConTeXt and with related programs like METAPOST.

Showcases are mostly PDF files. Most examples come with some sort of source.
