User reviews


Works relatively well for simple LaTeX on GitHub. However, it is not nearly as extensive as the similar extension that currently exists for Chromium-based browsers through the Google Extension Store. I would recommend the developer, if this extension is being actively maintained, to use some more MathJax to get the rendering for things like matrices and integrals.
