How To Use MathLive

Displaying Math

Render math equations by adding a few lines to your web page.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en-US">
    <head>
        ...
        <link
            href="https://unpkg.com/mathlive/dist/mathlive.core.css"
            rel="stylesheet"
        />
        <link
            href="https://unpkg.com/mathlive/dist/mathlive.css"
            rel="stylesheet"
        />
    </head>
    <body>
        <h1>Euler's Identity</h1>
        <p>$$e^{i\pi} + 1 = 0$$</p>

        <script type="module">
            import MathLive from 'https://unpkg.com/mathlive/dist/mathlive.mjs';
            MathLive.renderMathInDocument();
        </script>
    </body>
</html>

Editing Math

You can also incorporate a “mathfield” to edit math just like you would edit text. The MathLive APIs allow you to interact with the mathfield, including extracting its content, inserting placeholders and more.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en-US">
    <head>
        ...
        <link
            rel="stylesheet"
            href="https://unpkg.com/mathlive/dist/mathlive.core.css"
        />
        <link
            rel="stylesheet"
            href="https://unpkg.com/mathlive/dist/mathlive.css"
        />
    </head>
    <body>
        <div id="mathfield">f(x)=</div>

        <script type="module">
            import MathLive from 'https://unpkg.com/mathlive/dist/mathlive.mjs';
            MathLive.makeMathField('mathfield');
        </script>
    </body>
</html>

Installing MathLive

The examples above use a CDN, which is the fastest and easiest way to get started. However, if you:

use your own CDN
make some other changes to MathLive you can also install it locally in your project.

To do so:

$ npm install -s mathlive
$ npm start

This will make a local build of MathLive, run a local HTTP server and open a page with the examples in your browser.
