Package Exports

markdown-it-texmath

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (markdown-it-texmath) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

FAQ

markdown-it-texmath with React Native does not work, why ?
- markdown-it-texmath is using regular expressions with y (sticky) property and cannot avoid this. The use of the y flag in regular expressions means the plugin is not compatible with React Native (which as of now doesn't support it and throws an error Invalid flags supplied to RegExp constructor).
Why doesn't markdown-it-texmath work with mathjax ?
- markdown-it-texmath is a personal project of mine. As it does very well what I want it to do, I offer it to the public as an open source plugin. I do not have time or interest to integrate other math engines. But if someone wants to help here out, pull requests are always welcome.
