I write technical material with a fair amount of math, and none of the other options can hold a candle to LaTeX so that's the clear winner for me. However, Overleaf is not an option where I work due to off-site storage of the content.
I do the same, apart from having replaced vi with nano. I am preparing slides for some courses, and vi/nano + Latex allow you to focus on what you have to say, and later on how to show it. Other tools (Powerpoint, to cite one) cause you to focus too much on the presentation side, and not on what you are going to talk about.
I wrote one math paper with LaTeX and I never want to touch that crap ever again. It had a point to exist when Word has a garbage equation editor but that is not an issue anymore

Not used Overleaf, tend to go for TeXstudio. I take it Overleaf is good for an online editor?

Kile / LaTeX for anything that will be read on paper by someone else.

Can anyone point me to a good tutoral.on how to actually *write* a document type in TeX at all?
I want to ise TeX for DTP-like custom document layouting.
It seems like everyone is focused on *using* pre-made types, and nobody tells you where those types actually come from!
And don't tell me it's too complicated. Complicated is my middle name and my favorite porn category!
