This is the first public beta release of MathJax v3.

NOTE

This is an early beta release. Do not use this in production but please test it and report issues at https://github.com/mathjax/mathjax-v3/issues!

The master branch is not the beta release; it is the current development copy, set up for development testing. The beta branch is the beta release.

What's Included

This beta version includes two input processors (TeX and MathML) and one output processor (CommonHTML). Other input and output processors (e.g., AsciiMath input and SVG output) will be added in the future.

The current TeX input processor has all the core functionality of the MathJax v2 TeX input, and several of the extensions built in, but some extensions are still to come. For example, \unicode, \bbox, and the color extension are not yet available.

The CommonHTML output implements all the MathML elements that v2 does, but does not yet include support for line breaking (neither automatic nor explicit ones); this will be implemented in a later beta version. Currently, there is no support for characters that are not within the MathJax TeX fonts, but that will be included in the future.

The MathJax contextual menu is not yet implemented.

The ability to configure MathJax through a configuration object, as in v2, is limited at the moment. In version 3, this type of customization is handled through building custom packed versions of MathJax, and that is not yet fully documented.

Examples
