MathJax

An extension to load MathJax into Adapt.

Installation

• In this extension the default configuration for MathJax is as follows:

"_mathJax": {
	"_inlineConfig": {
		"extensions": [
			"tex2jax.js"
		],
		"jax": [
			"input/TeX",
			"output/HTML-CSS"
		]
	},
	"_src": "//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/mathjax/2.7.2/MathJax.js"
}

• If this needs to be overridden, add the above to config.json and modify where required.
• With Adapt CLI installed, run adapt install mathJax. Alternatively, download the ZIP and extract into the src > extensions directory.
• Run an appropriate Grunt task.

Usage

• With the default configuation, equations are processed in LaTeX format.
• In JSON, surround LaTeX equations with \\( and \\) for inline mode or \\[ and \\] for display mode.
• Example of inline mode:

\\(x^n + y^n = z^n\\)

• Example of display mode (rendered in a separate block):

\\[f(x) = \\frac{1}{1+x}\\]

• When directly editing in the authoring tool, backslashes do not have to be escaped with an additional backslash (\). The above 'inline mode' example would therefore be entered as:

\(x^n + y^n = z^n\)

• The Adapt loading screen is shown while MathJax is processing.
