Say you have several lectures with overlapping topics.

What is the best way to manage each topic separately and merge them together to a single lecture.

One idea (I am a newbie) is to create files that only can be inputed:

topic1/topic1.tex:

\section{Topic1}
\begin{frame}
    This is topic 1.
\end{frame}

topic2/topic2.tex:

\section{Topic2}
\begin{frame}
    This is topic 2.
\end{frame}

And then a file like Lecture1.tex:

\documentclass{beamer}

\begin{document}


\begin{frame}
    Welcome to lecture 1.
\end{frame}

\input{topic1/topic1.tex}

\input{topic2/topic2.tex}




\end{document}

Is this the most elegant way or are there other techniques in LaTeX to do so?

    Looks fine to me. Probably you also want to put the preamble (or parts of it) into a separate file such that you can input it from every lecture requiring the same settings (because of shared chapters). – gernot Mar 24 '21 at 14:12
