pytooling/miktex repository overview

⁠MikTeX Docker Image

This repository is based on Debian 12.x Bookworm (slim) with Python 3.14⁠.

⁠Why another MikTeX Docker Image?

• MikTeX original containers⁠ do not provide installations based on Debian.
• MikTeX original containers are infrequently updated (>1 year).
• MikTeX original containers aren't smaller (less download time).
• Prepare MiKTeX with Unicode support (pyTooling.sty).
• pyTooling has control over preinstalled commonly used LaTeX packages:
  amsfonts/amsmath, babel, hyperref, longtables, ...
• pyTooling can derive specific images for e.g.Doxygen, Pandoc, Sphinx, ...
