* If you prefer a GUI-based approach to LaTeX, then [TeXworks](https://www.tug.org/texworks/ "texworks") is your best bet. It features a built-in PDF viewer like TeXmaker and TeXstudio, but this tool also possesses an auto-synchronisation feature to it.
* If you don't want to install anything, then try [ShareLaTeX](https://www.sharelatex.com/ "sharelatex"). Dropbox and GitHub syncing supported, 400+ ready-to-use templates, no installations needed. It also allows direct collaboration for a fee.
