Extension summary

This plugin renders LaTeX equations on any page on Github using the wonderful MathJax library, version 3.0.

the only thing you need to do to get this working in Markdown files on Github is to either use:

  • $a = b$ or $$a = b$$ format, or
  • escape your backslash, like \\(a = bc\\) or \\[a = bc\\]

You don't need to escape markdown in your code comments. They'll render just fine.
