Virtual Machine for LaTeX Compiling into PDF

Introduction

This is a virtual environment by Vagrant that enables Non-Unix like OS such as Windows to compile .tex (LaTeX) file into .pdf (PDF).

When provisioning this VM, all of required tool sets are installed by shellscript.

So you can easily create PDF and achieve it through the shared folder in the host OS.

Important Note

Sample LaTeX sources and compiling shellscript are extracted into another project.

Just clone it into shared folder as a git submopdule.
