# Technical Writing Samples

This project contains technical writing samples that are written in LaTeX. I prefer LaTeX because it is much more efficient than commercial or open-source word processing applications, and it is text-based, which means that it can be tracked using Git. Additionally, updates to documents are made simple through branching in Git.

The only binary files here are illustrations in either `.jpg` or `.png` format. 

All the files here use packages which should be contained in any standard LaTeX install. You are encouraged to download and compile them.
