Math Typesetting

Mathematical notation in a Hugo project can be enabled by using third party JavaScript libraries.

In this example we will be using KaTeX

{{ if or .Params.math .Site.Params.math }}
{{ partial "math.html" . }}
{{ end }}
  • To enable KaTex globally set the parameter math to true in a project’s configuration
  • To enable KaTex on a per page basis include the parameter math: true in content files

Note: Use the online reference of Supported TeX Functions

Examples

Block math:

$$ \varphi = 1+\frac{1} {1+\frac{1} {1+\frac{1} {1+\cdots} } } $$
