## Beautiful math in all browsers
-MathJax is an open-source JavaScript display engine for LaTeX and MathML that
-works in all modern browsers. It was designed with the goal of consolidating
-the recent advances in web technologies into a single, definitive,
-math-on-the-web platform supporting the major browsers and operating systems. It
-requires no setup on the part of the user (no plugins to download or software to
-install), so the page author can write web documents that include mathematics
-and be confident that users will be able to view it naturally and easily. Simply
-include MathJax and some mathematics in a web page, and MathJax does the rest.
