Any tips on how to invoke KaTex for inline formulae?
I see I can do something like this:
&&a+b&&
What other options do we have?

Roy Emmerich: You need to use markdown editor and then enclose the katext expression within
$
symbols (inline) or $$
symbols (block). Here is an example:

Module is ready and will be available in 2.1. It's using KaTeX and supports both inline and block formatting.

Nicolas Giard: Wow! Two days before you posted this someone mentioned KaTeX as an alternative to MathJax and you already have it ready. This is unreal :o

Nicolas Giard I love the project and your work. Do you have any idea of when LaTeX / KaTex support will begin being worked on? Thank you !

Agreed! Wiki.js is a great tool, and this is the one feature which is lacking for me in v2. I'm going to begin using Wiki.js before LaTeX support, but it may be a deal breaker for some academics/statisticians/data scientists.
When you guys decide to begin on this feature, please consider using KaTeX (https://katex.org/) over MathJax. There's an informative 8-month old HN thread here (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19475273).
Thanks!

Aniket Panjwani: Thanks for the KaTeX suggestion, looks like a good alternative to the very slow and heavy Mathjax.
