Summary description: Write differential coefficients easily and consistently
Announcement text:
Version 5.6 of diffcoeff resolves a conflict between version 5.5 and LaTeX packages that still use xtemplate. Otherwise it is identical to version 5.5.
This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/diffcoeff More information is at https://ctan.org/pkg/diffcoeff
Thanks for the upload. For the CTAN Team Manfred Lotz CTAN is run entirely by volunteers and supported by TeX user groups. Please join a user group or donate to one, see https://ctan.org/lugs .

diffcoeff – Write differential coefficients easily and consistently
This package allows the easy and consistent writing of ordinary, partial and other derivatives of arbitrary (algebraic or numeric) order. For mixed partial derivatives, the total order of differentiation is calculated by the package. Optional arguments allow specification of points of evaluation (ordinary derivatives), or variables held constant (partial derivatives), and the placement of the differentiand (numerator or appended).
The package is built on xtemplate and the configurability it enables, extending to differentials (including simple line elements) and jacobians.
