### Welcome

Hi! I’m Arno and I’ve always been interested in typography and in math as a language. At the intersection of science and art, I have crafted MathLive: beautifully typeset math made easy.

When you type a formula, MathLive will:

• Typeset it beautifully, as TeX would have
• Generate the LaTeX and MathML markup for it
• Evaluate it numerically

MathLive is a Javascript library that implements the TeX layout algorithms using modern HTML/CSS and no absolute positioning. It implements a large set of LaTeX commands, including some popular extensions used by MathJAX. It is tested on all modern browsers, on both desktop and mobile devices. It has a rich API that allows extensive customization and extensibility. You can find out more in the MathLive Usage Guide.

I can’t wait to see what you will do with it. Enjoy!

—Arno
