Writing math on Slack using LaTex

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/math

Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • Zulip

    Zulip server and web application. Open-source team chat that helps teams stay productive and focused.

    Just throwing this out there, Slack is poison and if you’re in a position to not use it, I strongly recommend Zulip instead. It has better support for threads, is fully open source and can be self hosted, their own hosted version is free for academics and open source communities, it has real markdown support, and real LaTeX support both inline and as blocks without having to use extensions.

  • Mattermost

    Mattermost is also an option: https://mattermost.com/. It is also open source and MIT-licensed.
