Thanks for opening this Pull Request, @RadostW!
https://github.com/overleaf/toolkit/blob/master/doc/ce-upgrading-texlive.md goes into detail how to upgrade TeXLive inside the container.
We prefer keeping the Quick Start Guide to a bare minimum. Does the above "Community Edition: Upgrading TexLive" guide cover everything you need?
| To save bandwidth, the Overleaf image only comes with a minimal install of TeXLive. To upgrade to a complete TeXLive installation, run the installation script in the Overleaf container with the following command | ||
|
|
||
| ```sh | ||
| $ docker exec sharelatex tlmgr install scheme-full |

This is not sufficient anymore. tlmgr path add is required for linking all the bin/ scripts.

"Community Edition: Upgrading TexLive" is good, but it's not easy enough to find it. My opinion is that without installing some packages (such as babel) community edition is pretty much unusable. For me it's as important as TLS config which is in the quickstart. I'm not sure "upgrading" is something that a new user would look at when trying to fix packages not working. Perhaps adding a link to "upgrading texlive" at the end of quickstart is a good compromise? And one sentence why someone would want to "upgrade"? |
Improve quickstart to include texlive-full config
Description
Currently it's hard to find instructions on getting texlive-full running with overleaf-toolkit. Following the manual stops at only a minimal installation.
