feat: use a system LaTeX install, or fall back to a bundled one#19
Merged
Conversation
The compiler resolves the engine from PATH first, then from a bundled distribution via TEXSET_TEX_BIN_DIR (set by the desktop build to TinyTeX). When using the bundle, its bin dir is prepended to PATH so latexmk finds xelatex/bibtex.
A status route reports whether latexmk is reachable, and an app-wide banner explains how to install TeX (or to use the desktop app) so a missing engine isn't a surprise.
Drops the logo image, documents what the app can do, and notes it's in active development with feedback welcome.
Runs the Next standalone server in an Electron window and points it at a bundled TinyTeX, with a Windows/Microsoft Store build guide. To be assembled and tested on Windows.
