Turn LaTeX snippets into images worth sharing, without leaving your Mac.
LaTeX source gets screenshotted for the same reason Markdown does: the point is what you typed, not what it rendered to.
Codeshot detects LaTeX from the code you paste, so there is no language picker to get wrong. Here is the same snippet in three of the 30 themes it ships with, rendered with the app's own stylesheets.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{listings}
\begin{document}
\section{Sharing code}
Export at \textbf{2x} so the listing stays sharp.
\end{document}

Choosing a theme for LaTeX
Backslash commands are the visual rhythm here. A theme that colours them distinctly makes the structure obvious at a glance.
Getting the size right
Let the image follow your content, or lock it to a ratio — 1:1, 4:3, 3:2, 16:9, 9:16, 2:3, or 3:4 — then export at 1×, 2×, or 3× so it stays sharp on a retina display. Copy it straight to the clipboard with ⌘⇧C, or save with ⌘S.
