The landing page (clearly to a large part written by LLM) does not mention that both KaTeX and mathjax can render to SVG in node. This wasm approach might still be lighter, but the advantage is not as clear as the page makes it seem. (It also contains LLM dishonesties like that the bundle size is 0 KB.) | ||

> It also contains LLM dishonesties like that the bundle size is KB That one jumped out to me too. The phrasing is so wiggly but technically correct it feels intentional. When I saw it I didn't blame it on the LLM, which is worse. Otherwise it's a super cool looking project | ||

Where this clearly wins is native rendering use cases where there is no browser or JS engine involved at all. | ||

If RaTeX gets to brag about having a 0 KB JS bundle, the other libraries should be able to say they have 0 KB WASM bundles! | ||
