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:
go-html-template
1{{ if or .Params.math .Site.Params.math }}
2{{ partial "math.html" . }}
3{{ 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

KaTeX support will be added in a future release.
