Welcome!

This website provides additional information to LaTeX Graphics with TikZ, written and published at Packt Publishing.

You can run all code examples on this website with the integrated online compiler. You can edit the code, try something out, compile it, and see the output PDF in the browser. No own local LaTeX installation is needed. You can browse the code in the book contents by chapter. Also, see the menu at the top left, and have a look at the reviews. Apart from code, this website will be a future way to post improvements, errata, new recommendations, and updates. The complete code is available on GitHub for browsing, for download as zip file and for Opening everything in a single project on Overleaf.

Please rate (and possibly review) the book on Amazon if you got it there, your feedback means much to me and helps to get an extended second edition!

I’m also happy to get email feedback, you can reach me at: stefan@latex.org

Back to 3rd person speaking. 🙂
