About:
Itex2MML is a text filter that parses mathematical equations written in a subset of LaTeX syntax and converts them into MathML (Mathematical Markup Language). This enables the display of complex mathematical notation on web pages in a standards-compliant way, without requiring image generation or client-side plugins. It is particularly useful for web-based publishing and scientific blogging.

Key Features:

LaTeX-to-MathML conversion
Fast C-based processing
Can be used as a command-line filter or CGI script
Supports a subset of standard LaTeX math commands

Use Cases:

Generating MathML for scientific weblogs
Embedding equations in HTML documents
Server-side rendering of mathematical content

Alternatives:

MathJax – MathJax is a JavaScript-based renderer that works client-side, whereas Itex2MML performs server-side conversion to native MathML.
KaTeX – KaTeX is a fast JavaScript library for rendering LaTeX on the web, focusing on browser performance rather than generating XML markup.
