Elementary proof of the exactness of Čech complex associated to a hypercovering ("Illusie's Conjecture")
Let $\mathcal{E}$ be a sheaf of abelian groups on a topological space (or a site). For an open covering $\mathfrak{U} = (U_i)_i$, it is well known that the augmented Čech complex $0 \to \mathcal{E} \...

Does the de Rham complex induce a functorial soft resolution of the category of cochain complexes of sheaves of vector spaces on a smooth manifold?
I apologize in advance if this is pretty straightforward; I'm a differential geometer and physicist by training so my homological algebra and homotopy theory are a bit weak.
