Creating a new latex project
Find out how flexible crixet is when it comes to creating new projects.
Crixet makes it simple to start writing in LaTeX, whether you want to begin fresh or bring in an existing project.
Here’s a quick guide to creating and importing projects.

Creating a New Project
Click the New button (top-right corner).
A blank LaTeX project will be created for you instantly.
You can then start adding files, writing code, and compiling your document.

Importing an Existing Project
If you already have a LaTeX project, Crixet lets you import it directly. Click the Import button (next to “New”), and you’ll see two options:
Import .zip File
- Use this if you’ve downloaded a project as a .zip
archive (for example, from Overleaf).
- Select Import .zip file and choose your archive.
- Crixet will automatically unpack it and set up the project.
Import Folder
- Use this if your project is already extracted into a regular folder on your computer.
- Select Import Folder and choose the project’s root directory.
- All the LaTeX files, bibliography, images, and other resources will be added into your Crixet workspace.
That’s it!
With New you can create a blank project in seconds, and with Import you can easily bring in .zip
archives or full folders. Crixet ensures a smooth workflow whether you’re beginning a new paper or continuing work from another LaTeX editor.
