Implementing a “mini-LaTeX” in ~2000 lines of code
> Replacing TeX is pretty easy since it is a fairly small language.
Conceptually, easy. In practice, it can go sideways. Take JMathTeX, for instance:
http://jmathtex.sourceforge.net/
The code had (has?) a particularly nasty bottleneck where it an exception is thrown for every single character in a macro name until the macro name matches a known TeX command. In Java, throwing an exception requires filling out a complete stack trace. I forked the project and optimized the font glyph to SVG path conversion algorithm, as well. The TeX library went from non-real-time rendering of a few formulas to real-time rendering of 1,000 formulas.
