Create a Bidirectional Bibliography Feature

[InMDev]

Summary

Create a comprehensive Bibliography Feature for the Modern LaTeX Editor that functions bidirectionally. This means users should be able to both generate a bibliography from in-text citations and insert in-text citations from selected bibliography entries.

Requirements

• Bidirectional Functionality:
  • Allow users to insert in-text citations that are automatically added to the bibliography.
  • Enable users to generate in-text citations directly from selected bibliography entries.
• User Interface:
  • Provide UI for managing bibliography entries (add, edit, delete, import/export).
  • Citation picker for easy insertion into LaTeX documents.
• Supported Formats:
  • Should support . bib files (BibTeX/BibLaTeX).
  • Simple integration and parsing of bibliography and citation formats.
• Synchronization:
  • Ensure edits in the bibliography auto-update in-text citations and vice versa.
• Performance:
  • Efficient handling of large bibliographies and documents.

Acceptance Criteria

• Users can insert citations that appear/update in the bibliography.
• Selecting a bibliography entry allows insertion of corresponding citations.
• Edits in either the bibliography or in-text citation are reflected in the other.
• UI is intuitive and supports basic CRUD operations for bibliography entries.
• Compatible with common LaTeX bibliography workflows.

Additional Notes

• Consider future extensibility for other bibliography formats.
• Should be robust against malformed .bib files.
