Hi everyone!
I'm new in LaTeX, I have installed TeX Live in my Windows and I was wondering wich TeX editor will be the better option. I know that in most cases it's something subjective, but I would like to know your opinions. In my researches I have hear a lot of good things about Texmaker and TeXstudio, but I don't really understand the differences between them or why should I choose one before the other. I'm not searching something created for learners with less tools or things like that. I want to use LaTeX for my thesis and I want to use it from now on so I'm interested in learning how to use it. That is the reason why I would like to have a text editor that allows me to have access to all the tools that are available for LaTeX.
Thank you very much for your attention,
See you soon.

Decision Guidance ⇒ Texmaker vs. TeXstudio
NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.
And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Texmaker vs. TeXstudio
Both are really just text efitors with some extra LaTeX-related buttons.
You don't need any to learn how to use LaTeX.
The decision which one to use is more of a "look-and-feel"-type. See which one is more comfortable for you to use and stick to it.
