Etymology

The term 'Overleaf' is derived from a combination of the prefix 'over-' indicating something that is above or surpassing, and 'leaf,' a term commonly used in publishing and document creation to refer to a single sheet of paper in a book or document. Founded in 2012 by John Hammersley, Overleaf was created to provide a simpler, more collaborative way to use LaTeX, a typesetting system widely used for scientific and technical documents. The platform quickly gained popularity among students, researchers, and academics due to its accessibility, ease of use, and real-time collaboration features. Overleaf has since integrated with various academic publishing services and has grown to become one of the preferred tools for working with LaTeX, further emphasizing the shift towards cloud-based solutions in education and research.
