Paper co-authors usually trade .tex files by email or pay for a hosted editor seat by seat; Aldine replaces both with a self-hosted LaTeX workspace where the whole team types in one document at once and sees a typeset PDF seconds later. Live cursors and presence show who is editing which paragraph, and the underlying sync is conflict-free, so two authors can rewrite the same section without overwriting each other. Every project is a real git repository: branch a draft, edit it independently, and merge it back from the interface when the argument holds together. Connect GitHub, GitLab, Gitea, or Forgejo to push and pull without leaving the editor, watch ahead and behind indicators, resolve conflicts, and open a pull or merge request on the merged result. Moving in is painless, since an exported Overleaf project ZIP dropped on the home screen imports with its root file detected and its first typeset automatic. Citations come from your own Zotero library or a single collection, kept in sync as a .bib file and inserted from a search panel or \cite autocomplete. Reviewers select text and leave anchored, threaded comments, optionally with a suggested replacement the author accepts in one click. Compiles run in a sandboxed container with no network access, warm recompiles land in about two seconds, and errors jump to the offending line.
