Why do i need to enable javascript to see the equations tex-style
- Kwpolska 5y agoThis website is using MathJax [0] to render math. MathJax and its faster and leaner competitor KaTeX are the only ways to display beautiful, human-friendly math on the Web. They can be run server-side, but many sites do it client-side. The alternative, MathML [2] is a pain for humans to write [3] — it’s a late-90s XML format — and is only supported by Firefox and Safari [4].

Chrome are re-adding MathML support (thanks to Igalia) and a significant degree of MathML support is already there. It's hidden behind a feature toggle, but if you turn it on, it does work. It's not complete as far as handling every detail of the spec, but what's there is not insignificant from what I've seen. https://chromestatus.com/feature/5240822173794304 https://chromestatus.com/feature/5240822173794304 https://mathml.igalia.com/news/2021/02/15/mathml-plans-for-2021/ https://mathml.igalia.com/news/2021/02/15/mathml-plans-for-2...
