Math Typesetting	2020-06-05	math-typesetting	A brief guide to setup KaTeX	gohugo hugo go blog	false	math	true	false

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

In this example we will be using KaTeX

• Create a partial under /layouts/partials/math.html
• Within this partial reference the Auto-render Extension or host these scripts locally.
• Include the partial in your templates like so:

{{ 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 {{< math.inline >}} {{ if or .Page.Params.math .Site.Params.math }}

{{ end }} {{}}

Examples

Inline math: \varphi = \dfrac{1+\sqrt5}{2}= 1.6180339887…

Block math:

\sigma(t) = \cfrac{1}{1 + e^{-t}}
