v1.0.0 — Initial Release

Soil v1.0.0

The first public release of Soil — an open-source, offline LaTeX editor with two-way Overleaf sync.

Highlights

• Full LaTeX editing with Monaco Editor (syntax highlighting, auto-closing brackets, multi-cursor)
• Local compilation via auto-downloaded TinyTeX — no system-wide TeX installation needed
• Live PDF preview with PDF.js, zoom, page navigation, and SyncTeX click-to-scroll
• Overleaf integration — sign in, browse projects, clone, pull, push & commit
• AI assistant powered by local Ollama (optional) — explain errors, rewrite text, generate LaTeX
• Zero-dependency setup — TinyTeX and MinGit download automatically on first launch
• Auto-compile modes — Off / Normal (5s) / Fast (1.5s)
• Dark & Light themes with system-follow option
• Compile error panel with clickable errors that jump to the source line
