Like mdbook and others, we should add support for mathematical notation.
MathJax seems like it could be a good option. It could be integrated similarly to how we do with MermaidJS - bundle the minified JS in the binary and serve it.

One issue with MathJax seems to be that it requires a polyfill library to also be loaded for browser compatibility. This is required even for IE 11 support. Details here.
Perhaps Katex could be a more lightweight option? It's around ~250kb minified and is self contained.

good point, I forgot that my quick test was with Katex (it almost displayed correctly)
