Is there a latex editor that can show the end product side by side while you're writing the document?

Texmaker is pretty close. It doesn't update live, but I've never actually needed that capability. Tons of other useful features too. No affiliation, I just use it a lot. http://www.xm1math.net/texmaker/ http://www.xm1math.net/texmaker/

Overleaf.com is an online site that works that way.

Both http://sharelatex.com http://sharelatex.com and http://overleaf.com http://overleaf.com support that by re-rendering a pdf preview as you make changes. Overleaf also has a WYSIWYG editor with inline latex, although I find it doesn't work for everything.

    If you press and hold `/`, that's a Christmas tree generator.

lyx + instant preview, perhaps?

There is also the 'Integrated viewer' column with notes on live/instant updates.

https://cloud.sagemath.com/ https://cloud.sagemath.com/ has one of the best online latex editors I've seen. It has live preview and you can jump from source to the right position in the end product, and vis-versa. It's definitely worth checking out!

Gummi[0] is a really great one for Linux users. It's simple and stays out of your way. It live-updates as you type. 0: https://github.com/alexandervdm/gummi https://github.com/alexandervdm/gummi

Yes you should get Atom (ugh I know, but it is worth it for this extension), and Markdown Preview Enhanced: https://github.com/shd101wyy/markdown-preview-enhanced https://github.com/shd101wyy/markdown-preview-enhanced I have looked into markdown editors a lot, and this is the best by far. It supports Latex, PlantUML, images, Graphviz, and some more stuff.
