[BlindMath] Writing my own web based formulae

[dana mohsen]

Hello,
In my experience, the best format to use is LaTeX math imbedded in markdown.
It is especially helpful if you’re using visual studio code, where you can save the markdown file and preview it using control + shift + v.
I’d be happy to help further if this is a bit confusing.
Best,
Dana

There is also a format called AsciiMath. MathJax understands this format
and there may be other converters out there that can convert it to MathML.


For casual use, I think it's much easier to use than latex; it's similar
to how one would write formulas in a programming language, but with many
more operators!
