Hi in the past there were some discussions about using cloud based latex instead of a local installation. I just receive an announcement from ShareLaTeX that one can automatically compile tex files on github.
From their announcement: ,---- | Github + ShareLaTeX | | We have released our new Cloud Compiler which automatically compiles | your LaTeX projects stored in Github after each push. It is free and | very easy to get setup with. If you prefer a local editor and git for | writing your LaTeX then you now no longer need to worry about having a | working LaTeX environment. `---- More info can be found at https://www.sharelatex.com/github/ I am not entirely sure how robust and user friendly the git implementation in LyX is, but it would be nice to use it for having a version control as well as cloiund based compilation?
