| 3 | ## Beautiful math in all browsers | |
| 4 | ||
| 5 | MathJax is an open-source JavaScript display engine for LaTeX, MathML, and | |
| 6 | AsciiMath notation that works in all modern browsers. It was designed with | |
| 7 | the goal of consolidating the recent advances in web technologies into a | |
| 8 | single, definitive, math-on-the-web platform supporting the major browsers | |
| 9 | and operating systems. It requires no setup on the part of the user (no | |
| 10 | plugins to download or software to install), so the page author can write | |
| 11 | web documents that include mathematics and be confident that users will be | |
| 12 | able to view it naturally and easily. Simply include MathJax and some | |
| 13 | mathematics in a web page, and MathJax does the rest. | |
| 14 | ||
| 15 | Some of the main features of MathJax include: | |
| 16 | ||
| 17 | - High-quality display of LaTeX, MathML, and AsciiMath notation in HTML pages | |
| 18 | ||
| 19 | - Supported in most browsers with no plug-ins, extra fonts, or special | |
| 20 | setup for the reader | |
| 21 | ||
| 22 | - Easy for authors, flexible for publishers, extensible for developers | |
| 23 | ||
| 24 | - Supports math accessibility, cut-and-paste interoperability, and other | |
| 25 | advanced functionality | |
| 26 | ||
| 27 | - Powerful API for integration with other web applications | |
| 28 | ||
