  • symengine

    SymEngine is a fast symbolic manipulation library, written in C++

  • Context: I'm making a application for robotics calculations, making symbolic calculations using (symengine), and at some point I would like to be able to see the steps of these calculations, symengine has a function that returns the latex code do the elements you want. So I was trying to find a library or something of sorts to render that text into an image, I'm using Dear IMGUI in the docking branch to make a simple UI where I would like to display these equations. I know it might not even exists but I would like to give it a try. I found KLateXFormula, which depends on Qt as far as I understood, so I would like to avoid that if possible, I also studied a bit about the TeXStudio repo and found they use Qt to render previews. I also tried to understand the miktex repo searching for a function that I could use, but I barely understood the structure of the repo. I'm getting frustraded. I also found approaches where people would call latex executables to parse latex to DVI(Or something like this) but I would also like to avoid this approaches if possible.
