## Markdown Viewer with LaTeX Math Equations

Our **MD viewer with mathematical notation support** renders complex equations using KaTeX — the industry standard for web-based math rendering.

**Display math blocks**:

$$
f(x) = \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \hat{f}(\xi) e^{2\pi i \xi x} d\xi
$$

$$
\begin{pmatrix}
1 & 2 & 3 \\
4 & 5 & 6 \\
7 & 8 & 9
\end{pmatrix}
\times
\begin{pmatrix}
x \\ y \\ z
\end{pmatrix} =
\begin{pmatrix}
x+2y+3z \\ 4x+5y+6z \\ 7x+8y+9z
\end{pmatrix}
$$

> **Perfect for**: Students, researchers, and academics who need to preview markdown documents containing mathematical formulas and equations.
