After you pick a venue

You've chosen where to submit. The manuscript is another matter.

You compared fields and deadlines and settled on a target venue. The hard part starts now. Every conference has its own template, page limit, and citation style.

Few papers land on the first try. When one is rejected you move it elsewhere, and the formatting work starts over.

Every venue formats differently
Two-column layouts, page limits, anonymization rules, citation styles. Picking a venue means learning its rules from scratch.
Setup outlasts the writing
Download the template, match the compiler, invite co-authors. Days pass before the first sentence.
Resubmission repeats it all
Moving from ICML to NeurIPS keeps the content and redoes the formatting. The deadline has moved closer in the meantime.
Venue chosen. Now just write.
No install, no compile errors, co-authors in the same document.
