Here's something I cooked up that works for me, though I'm not an avid user:

* vis text editor
* abduco + dvtm for arranging terminal windows and attach/detach
* entr for watching files [2]
* redo for building PDFs [1]
* mupdf
* —and dwm on Arch Linux for tiling all my windows

Probably not the most efficient, but mupdf reloads the document on HUP signal, 
so I put that in my build script to see the result whenever I save.

I use a similar setup for pretty much everything else (finances, web dev, even 
at my job as a teacher).

(No pun intended)
