Writing tablet compatible with Mac
I need to write mathematics, but I would like to avoid Latex for quick notes that I wish to send to colleagues. So I would like to have somewhere to write with some sort of pen, in such a way that
-
What I write appears on the display of my computer (please note that I don't have an iPad, just a MacBook)
-
It gets saved on my computer when I finish.
These are just quick notes, so no special drawing features are required (on the contrary, the simpler/cheaper the better).
What should I consider? Since I own a MacBook, also writing on the built-in trackpad would be fine, but I've heard that the Inklet app slows down the computer in a very nasty way.
You could purchase a Huion tablet from Amazon, I don't know if they are available in your region. They're quite cheap, I haven't personally tried them but based on the good reviews it looks like they do their job.
Here are two of them:

There are also the Wacom tablets, I've used them before and I can say that they worked very well.
They can be expensive but there are a few cheaper ones like the Intuos S, I believe it was. It's specifically a drawing tablet but you could use it for writing.

And for the software, you could use Krita (a free painting app) or Photoshop CC. You could also find other apps in the Mac Store as well.
EDIT: There is a video I found:

He's using Windows but there's a version of OneNote available for Mac. It converts the hand written equations into text. It's awesome!
