Awesome Ti*k*Z

============



[![](https://cdn.rawgit.com/sindresorhus/awesome/master/media/badge.svg)](http://awesome.es)



[Ti*k*Z](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/PGF/TikZ) is a wonderful awesome graph drawing package for TeX/LaTeX/ConTeXt. Unlike other TeX packages, TikZ itself is really huge, its manual contains about 1100+ pages, 100+ chapters. Tens of other packages, and serveral GUI applications are based on TikZ.



This project contains a curated list of awesome TikZ documentations, libraries and resources.
