FEATURES AND BENEFITS


HIGH-QUALITY TYPOGRAPHY

MathJax uses CSS with web fonts or SVG, instead of bitmap images or Flash, so
equations scale with surrounding text at all zoom levels.

View Samples


MODULAR INPUT & OUTPUT

MathJax is highly modular on input and output. Use MathML, TeX, and ASCIImath as
input and produce HTML+CSS, SVG, or MathML as output.

Try a live demo


ACCESSIBLE & REUSABLE

MathJax works with screenreaders & provides expression zoom and interactive
exploration. You also can copy equations into Office, LaTeX, wikis, and other
software.

SAMPLES

Our homepage is configured to use MathJax's CommonHTML mode with web fonts to
display the equations, which produces uniform layout and typesetting across
browsers. But MathJax can also be configured to use HTML-CSS (for legacy
browsers), SVG, and native MathML rendering when available in a browser. You can
try the various output modes using the MathJax context Menu (which you access by
ctrl+clicking / alt-clicking / right-clicking an equation) or the menu below.

Type text in the box below. Include some math: enter MathML as MathML tags, and
wrap TeX in $...$ or $$...$$ delimiters (or \(...\) and \[...\]), and AsciiMath
in `...` delimiters. The text you enter is actually HTML, so you can include
tags if you want; but this also means you have to be careful how you use
less-than signs, ampersands, and other HTML special characters within your math
(surrounding them by spaces should be sufficient).

When $a \ne 0$, there are two solutions to \(ax^2 + bx + c = 0\) and they are
$$x = {-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} \over 2a}.$$

Preview is shown here:
When a≠0, there are two solutions to ax2+bx+c=0 and they are x=−b±b2−4ac2a.


ACCESSIBILITY AND REUSE.

ACCESSIBILITY

MathJax provides a powerful set of accessibility extensions that provide
navigation, exploration, and voicing on the client.

You can find more information in our introductory video on YouTube and our
documentation.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


REUSE

Using the MathJax context menu, you can access the source of any mathematical
expression either in MathML format, or in its original format if that was TeX or
AsciiMath.

To access the MathJax menu, right-click on a math formula (if you are using
Windows), or Control-click it (if you are using a Mac) or touble-tap and hold on
a touch device. In the sub-menu “Show Math as” you can choose between “MathML
Code” and “TeX commands” to get a pop-up that allows you to copy the math source
into another application. Try it out on the equation below!

[–ℏ22m∂2∂x2+V]Ψ=iℏ∂∂tΨ

You can also watch our screencast on YouTube of a MathJax equation being copied
and pasted into a variety of applications. Note that this screencast is based on
MathJax v1.1 so the menu structure is a little different in the current version.

SIMPLE INTEGRATION

Adding MathJax to your web pages is easy to do.

If you are using a Content Management System (like Wordpress, Moodle, or Drupal)
to generate your web site, there may be a plugin to add MathJax to your site
already, e.g., for Wordpress or Drupal. You may need to download or activate the
plugin, if one is available.

If you are using specialized authoring tools, such as LaTeX or Markdown, they
might integrate MathJax out of the box or have plugins, e.g., for LaTeX,
Markdown, or even epub.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


USING MATHJAX VERSION 3

If you write your own HTML (directly or via a template/theme engine), you can
include MathJax by adding this snippet to your page:

<script src="https://polyfill.io/v3/polyfill.min.js?features=es6"></script>
<script id="MathJax-script" async src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/mathjax@3/es5/tex-mml-chtml.js"></script>

Here's a pre-populated example on jsbin you can re-use.

Note: the configuration file tex-mml-chtml.js is a great way to test both TeX
and MathML input options at once. You can find leaner combined components in our
documentation.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you use the snippet above, you will not need to change the version number in
the src attribute every time the version of MathJax changes. If you want to
always use a specific version, then use a reference like

<script src="https://polyfill.io/v3/polyfill.min.js?features=es6"></script>
<script id="MathJax-script" async src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/mathjax@3.0.1/es5/tex-mml-chtml.js"></script>

Here's a pre-populated example on jsbin you can re-use.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


USING MATHJAX VERSION 2

Some features from version 2 are still being ported to version 3. MathJax
version 2 is still available, and you can continue to use that until version 3
includes the features that you need. We will make updates to version 2 until
version 3 is complete. To load MathJax version 2 into your page, use this
snippet:

<script async src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/mathjax@2/MathJax.js?config=TeX-AMS-MML_CHTML"></script>

More information is available in the version 2 documentation at the link below.

Jump to our v2 docs


SERVER INTEGRATION

If you prefer to render server-side, MathJax version 3 makes that easy as well.
MathJax is available as a node package, which is easy to install via node's
package manager npm using the command

npm install mathjax



Alternatively, MathJax is available on Packagist. Just add the following line to
your require section in the composer.json file of your project

"mathjax/mathjax": "3.*"



Or simply download a copy of the latest distribution. This allows you to run
MathJax on your server and configure it yourself. There are plenty of examples
on how to use and configure MathJax for node in our MathJax Node Demos
repository.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you are a developer who wants to integrate MathJax more tightly into your
development workflow, you can use our full code node package available npm with

npm install mathjax-full



Or simply download the source code directly.

THE MATHJAX SPONSORSHIP PROGRAM

The MathJax project was initiated in 2009 by Design Science, the American
Mathematical Society (AMS) and the Society for Industrial and Applied
Mathematics (SIAM) with the goal of creating a robust, easy-to-use, and
universal solution for displaying high-quality mathematics online. From the
beginning, MathJax was conceived as open-source software, on the principle that
math display should be part of the common infrastructure of the web.

Providing a universal solution for online math display requires a long-term
commitment. Our users need MathJax to be reliable and easy to use, now and in
the future. This requires a continuous and coordinated rapid response to browser
updates and bugs, keeping up with the proliferation of tablets, smartphones, and
ebook readers, and a consistent approach towards new functionality and
performance improvements. All of this is important to the community, and
requires dedicated time, effort, and money.

Our founding sponsors have been very generous in providing funding; however, as
more and more individuals and organizations are using MathJax and its benefit to
the community is growing, its base of support grew via the Sponsorship Program.
To ensure the long-term stability of MathJax, we continuously reach out to the
community and ask organizations to contribute to the MathJax project by becoming
a Friend, Supporter, or Partner. All MathJax sponsors share a demonstrated and
significant interest in the dissemination of mathematics on the web, in

ABOUT US

MathJax is a fiscally sponsored project under the auspices of the NumFOCUS
Foundation, which serves as the legal and fiscal umbrella for the MathJax
project and several dozen other open-source, scientifically oriented software
products.

Originally, MathJax was supported by The MathJax Consortium, a joint venture of
the American Mathematical Society (AMS) and the Society for Industrial and
Applied Mathematics (SIAM) to advance mathematical and scientific content on the
web. We are grateful for the commitment offered by the Consortium for over 10
years, without which MathJax would not exist today.


CORE GOALS

The core of the MathJax project is the development of its state-of-the-art, open
source, JavaScript platform for display of mathematics. Our key design goals
are:

 * High-quality display of mathematics notation in all browsers.
 * No special browser setup required.
 * Support for LaTeX, MathML, and other equation markup directly in the HTML
   source.
 * An extensible, modular design with a rich API for easy integration into web
   applications.
 * Support for accessibility, copy and paste, and other rich functionality.
 * Interoperability with other applications and math-aware search.
 * Support for equation conversion outside a browser (e.g., preprocessing on a
   server).


ADVISORY COMMITTEES

The MathJax Steering Committee meets regularly to advise the MathJax team on its
development goals and priorities. We’re grateful for the support of our
committee members!

HISTORY

MathJax grew out of the popular jsMath project, an earlier Ajax-based math
rendering system developed by Davide Cervone in 2004. In the following years,
there were many significant developments relevant for web publication of
mathematics: consolidation of browser support for CSS 2.1, Web Font technology,
adoption of math accessibility standards, and increasing usage of XML workflows
for scientific publication.

In 2009, the AMS, Design Science, and SIAM formed the MathJax Consortium to
enable Cervone and others to design MathJax from the ground up as a
next-generation platform, while still benefiting from the extensive real-world
experience gained from jsMath. Since its initial release in 2010, MathJax has
become the gold standard for mathematics on the web.

In 2019, MathJax joined the NumFOCUS family of open-source software products as
a fiscally sponsored project. MathJax continues to be supported by the founding
sponsors and other partners, as it joins this dynamic community.

Over the years since MathJax was first developed, new web technologies and
paradigms emerged, and MathJax was not always easy to incoporate into these new
approaches. In 2017, after nearly a decade of use, work on MathJax version 3 was
begun, a complete rewrite of MathJax from the ground up using modern techniques.
This new version integrates with current toolchains and frameworks, and can run
equally well in a browser on a server, or in a stand-alone application. It
should form a solid foundation for another decade of MathJax use, and its use of
the Typescript language should make contributions from our user community easier
to produce and incorporate into MathJax.


THE MATHJAX TEAM

The MathJax team consists of Davide Cervone and Volker Sorge. Contributors
include Christian Lawson-Perfect, Omar Al-Ithawi, and Peter Krautzberger.
