<h1>What is MathJax?<a class="headerlink" href="#what-is-mathjax" title="Permalink to this headline">ΒΆ</a></h1>
<p>MathJax is an open-source JavaScript display engine for LaTeX, MathML,
and AsciiMath notation that works in all modern browsers. It was
designed with the goal of consolidating the recent advances in web
technologies into a single, definitive, math-on-the-web platform
supporting the major browsers and operating systems, including those
on mobile devices. It requires no setup on the part of the user (no
plugins to download or software to install), so the page author can
write web documents that include mathematics and be confident that
users will be able to view it naturally and easily. One simply
includes MathJax and some mathematics in a web page, and MathJax does
the rest.</p>
<p>MathJax uses web-based fonts (in those browsers that support it) to
produce high-quality typesetting that scales and prints at full
resolution (unlike mathematics included as images). MathJax can be
used with screen readers, providing accessibility for the visually
impaired. With MathJax, mathematics is text-based rather than
image-based, and so it is available for search engines, meaning that
your equations can be searchable, just like the text of your pages.
MathJax allows page authors to write formulas using TeX and LaTeX
notation, <a class="reference external" href="http://www.w3.org/TR/MathML3">MathML</a>, a World Wide Web
Consortium standard for representing mathematics in XML format, or
<a class="reference external" href="http://asciimath.org/">AsciiMath</a>
notation. MathJax will even convert TeX notation into MathML, so that
it can be rendered more quickly by those browsers that support MathML
natively, or so that you can copy and paste it into other programs.</p>
<p>MathJax is modular, so it loads components only when necessary, and
can be extended to include new capabilities as needed. MathJax is
highly configurable, allowing authors to customize it for the special
requirements of their web sites. Finally, MathJax has a rich
application programming interface (API) that can be used to make the
mathematics on your web pages interactive and dynamic.</p>
