The advantage of packaging the math support as a widget is just so that it can be re-used with different parsers. The trouble with MathJax, as you've probably discovered, is that it's entirely DOM-based, and it wouldn't be possible to, say, use it to generate static math markup on the server. But you could certainly still use it within those limitations, Best wishes Jeremy > > Best, > vct. > > Is there any option to get that into the main tree? >> >> Best, >> Lluis >> >> On Monday, April 6, 2015 at 11:47:40 PM UTC-7, Jeremy Ruston wrote: >>> >>> Hi Radu >>> >>> I'm probably just showing my ignorance here, but is there any chance >>>> this would work if the order in which the parsers act would be swapped?
