The primary limitation I've found with Markdown, and the one reason I revert to LaTeX for longer documents, is the lack of support for equations. I'd love to be able to just add LaTeX math between dollar signs.
- gbax 11y agoHave you looked into RMarkdown? http://rmarkdown.rstudio.com/ http://rmarkdown.rstudio.com/ Just like you said, you just use $ or $$ to add LaTeX. I am not arguing you should write a 600 page book with RMarkdown + LaTeX (just use LaTeX in that case), but it has worked well for me for technical reports and presentation.
