Сразу оговорюсь, что MathJax это не совсем TeX, он покрывает только формулы. Но, вероятно, лучшее место для поста про MathJax здесь. Сегодня получил по емейл. Что нового? С моей точки зрения (если судить по объявлению): скорость (и в частности синхронный рендеринг). Видимо, ответ на
. Пока они не предлагают простого пути подключения: надо скачать и установить у себя. И это не бета, а первая альфа. Т.ч. будем ждать
Hi everyone,
We're very happy to release our first public alpha of MathJax v3, a major milestone towards the next generation of formula rendering for the web.
MathJax v3 marks the result of over 18 months of research and design, completely overhauling MathJax's internals and re-writing components to fit the new architecture.
OverviewMathJax v3 is written in TypeScript with a high level of modularity. It provides significant performance improvements on all levels -- smaller package size, faster JS execution, smaller DOM fragment size, better CSS performance. We expect ~10x faster performance on average with higher gains at large scale.
Thanks to TypeScript's ecosystem MathJax v3 modules can easily transpile to popular formats (e.g., ES6, CommonJS) and feed easily into popular build tools (e.g., webpack, browserify).
Not all MathJax v2 extensions are available at this time. This initial alpha release contains first versions of the following components:
* MathJax core
* MathML input
* TeX input (including most macros from the AMS packages)
* HTML output
The input and output features are not yet complete but the most commonly used constructs are available.
Remaining limitations of the CommonHTML output in this first alpha are:
* No support for maction, menclose, mmultiscripts, or mglyph (they will be treated like mrow).
* No support for linethickness or beveled attributes in mfrac.
* No support for accent attribute of mo, or accent and underaccent in munderover.
* No accent substitution e.g., vector arrow (U+20D7) for regular arrow (U+2192) or prime (U+2032) * for apostrophe (U+027).
* No substitution for pseudo scripts (like <mi>x</mi><mo>'</mo> being treated as <msup><mi>x</mi><mo>'</mo></msup>).
* Not all mtable attributes are implemented. Currently supported attributes are: frame, framespacing, columnlines, rowlines, columnspacing, rowspacing, columnalign, rowalign, width.
* The first cell of mlabeledtr is ignored (labels are not shown).
* No support for automatic line breaking
MathJax v3 now works synchronously and supports NodeJS (using jsdom). Moreover, it can be customized to write to other DOM-like environments (e.g., virtual DOM implementations). See this
mathjax-dev thread for an example.
The source code for MathJax v3 is at
github.com/mathjax/mathjax-v3.
The alpha release is available via
GitHub and
npm (incl. CommonJS modules).
AudienceAs a first alpha, this release is mainly focused on developer feedback.
The new MathJax architecture means that there are several steps from the pure source code to a working distribution to load into the client which makes it tricky for non-developers to get started.
While we appreciate all feedback, this alpha hopes to gather feedback from developers who are looking for significant improvements in their workflows with MathJax.
Code examples and DemosWe plan to build distribution files for commonly used configurations (similar to the combined configuration files in v2). In the mean time, we have prepared a few demos and ready-to-use builds so that everyone can give it a spin.
You can find these examples (including
live pages) at
github.com/mathjax/mj3-demos.
Next StepsFollowing this first alpha we will turn a bit towards adding more documentation. We also expect to push out a few more alpha releases before the end of the year.
