About:
Texmath is a robust Haskell library and set of command-line tools designed for parsing and rendering LaTeX mathematical expressions. It excels at converting LaTeX math into various output formats, most notably MathML, which is essential for displaying equations correctly on the web. This makes it a critical backend component for systems that need to process or display scientific and mathematical content without a full LaTeX installation.
Key Features:
  • LaTeX to MathML conversion
  • Support for multiple output formats (HTML, MathML, etc.)
  • Command-line interface for scripting and integration
  • Written in Haskell for reliability and performance
Use Cases:
  • Integrating LaTeX math rendering into web applications and static site generators
  • Building command-line tools for batch processing academic documents
  • Serving as a backend for web-based equation editors
Alternatives:
  • KaTeX – KaTeX is a JavaScript library focused on fast client-side rendering, whereas Texmath is a server-side Haskell tool.
  • MathJax – MathJax is a broader JavaScript-based rendering engine with more browser features, while Texmath is a lightweight conversion utility.
