They support syncing to and from Dropbox directly https://www.sharelatex.com/dropbox. So you can work offline, use your own editor etc.

You can also download your entire project as a zip archive, so you're not locked in to our platform in any way.

EDIT: also, ShareLatex is open source and fully self-hostable.

I didn't realize this, and it's absolutely incredible. You guys are great!

Thanks, not bad! I wish there was syncing without adding another cloud company to the mix though. Eg git or rsync.

I've used Overleaf (formerly WriteLaTeX) with git before. It's especially nice that people comfortable with git can edit locally, while still having the option of editing directly in the browser.
