Math

VanillaPress includes markdown-it-mathjax3 and prerenders math in Markdown to static SVG during build.

Build

Math rendering is enabled by default during build. It does not need a config switch and does not run MathJax in the browser.

Wrap inline math with single $ delimiters.

Markdown

Wrap display math with $$ delimiters.

Markdown

When content needs to show literal $ characters, escape them with a backslash.
