texme VS MathJax

This is nice. We are website-mates. My website is also 2001-2022. I like the simple and serif font on your website.

I had thrown in your https://github.com/susam/texme few times to quickly send Markdown files for reading. :-)

By default vs code has latex on md. Also https://github.com/susam/texme

So the Markdown to HTML rendering happens as page load time.

This would hopefully allow me to forego the static .md -> .html step I use for building my sites.

I found one called 'texme' here: https://github.com/susam/texme

Do you use or have written a similar tool?

These days it's becoming standard for any markdown converter to support katex/mathjax. For instance, markdown-it has markdown-it-katex. Dump your markdown with equations directly inside your html file and have it do the conversion. Or this: https://github.com/susam/texme

Does the Self-Hosting heading not answer that objection?

> Open source maintainers abandoning projects due to lack of time and interest.

And the occasional demanding users who would rather have us working on their problems instead of our own.

Only about a couple of hours ago, I received an issue[1] on one of my projects suggesting I fix an issue which from my perspective appeared to be a lack of understanding of the documentation I have provided with the project. Unclear issue details and demanding behaviour can take a toll on a maintainer's morale.

From the screenshot, Obsidian looks like a typical Markdown editor that supports some LaTeX math syntax, probably rendered with something like Mathjax. On the other hand, Xournalapp seems to actually use LaTeX, even allowing you to use LaTeX packages like graphicx, tikz, etc.

When exporting, you can choose to export and have KeenWrite replace TeX with SVG, or if you have a website that uses KaTeX or MathJax, you can export while leaving the TeX statements alone.

MathJax 4 is available as a pre-release candidate from the GitHub releases page: https://github.com/mathjax/MathJax/releases. It supports 11 fonts: tex gyre math fonts (bonum, schola, pagella, termes, dejavu), asana math, stix2, neo euler, fira math and the original tex fonts in addition to the new default lmodern fonts. It can be accessed via CDN here: https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/es5/tex-mml-chtml.js Please refer to the release notes for more information.

Android smartphone, using Chrome. Indices appear as white boxes. I can send you a screenshot if that helps (don't think that it's possible to post image directly here ... ?). I agree with you that images are NG. I personally use https://www.mathjax.org/ .

Ghostwriter (Markdown) + Mathjax + Pandoc for export. Distraction free and good rendering.

Also the LaTeX interpreter provided is based on MathJax, which doesn’t provide a full LaTeX environment (only math-mode macros are supported), so I can't implement the solution you provided, unfortunately.

I'm not using a standard LaTeX editor, but a markdown note taking app with LaTeX support based on MathJax, so $$ are required to initialize the LaTeX interpreter.

You could also use something like Notion, which as a Markdown editor, but in terms of Markdown editors, I prefer Typora ($15) because it supports Mermaid where you can generate UML diagrams and other charts and uses MathJax for LaTeX support. You can also embed HTML and SVG and generate a preview of what the code looks like.
