rsync can't be use'd at windows: https://github.com/michael-brade/LaTeX.js/blob/ad1f84fb411a71aed34ca28ba66a5183a9dd1621/package.json#L37

what does this part do？ https://github.com/michael-brade/LaTeX.js/blob/ad1f84fb411a71aed34ca28ba66a5183a9dd1621/rollup.config.js#L19

and how did you deal with this part？ https://github.com/michael-brade/LaTeX.js/blob/ad1f84fb411a71aed34ca28ba66a5183a9dd1621/src/latex.ltx.ls#L1189

Good questions! The first one is my doing.... I don't have Windows, so I didn't care much about it. I guess rsync could be replaced by some rollup code. Maybe it could be conditional? On Linux, use rsync, on Windows use something else that's appropriate.

Regarding the other two questions, maybe @fgborges can answer those, he implemented that. I haven't taken the time to investigate yet.

use nodejs package to do that will be better just like rimraf and mkdirp

[michael-brade]

Yeah... but there is no such thing as an rsync package, only rsync wrappers, which means you need to have cygwin installed. Maybe I'll just use the rollup plugin... it's only 8MB that has to be copied, so that should be fast enough.

[seuliang]

yes, using copy is enough.

about second and third question: can we just import all documentclasses into latex.ltx.ls, rather than import it dynamically, and choose one type according to input？
