Math

Depends on extra: {"math": true} defined on frontmatter, then MathJax is loaded.

When $a \ne 0$, there are two solutions to \(ax^2 + bx + c = 0\) and they are $$x = {-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} \over 2a}.$$

Inline math $1 + 2$ and display math $$x + y$$

$$ x^2 $$

When $a \ne 0$, there are two solutions to \\(ax^2 + bx + c = 0\\) and they are

Depends on extra: {"mermaid": true} defined on frontmatter, then MermaidJS is loaded.

mermaid_theme is also configurable with values forest,neutral,dark,forest,base,default
