Using Tiddlywiki + KaTeX (Tex typesetting) for creating science and engineering app/webpage/wiki see these examples:

I’d like to add my own humble effort here…

It includes back linking for equations.
See the equations tiddler for the full list.
I’m also quite proud of the quadratic equation tiddler.

Wow this is amazing @Ste_W! I help run https://toolsforthought.rocks, would you be interested in coming on and talking about this notebook and generally what your workflow is for using TW? Usually a 5-10min show and tell and then 5 minutes of Q&A on video.

We don’t have a next event scheduled yet, but are actively recruiting for people to demo their stuff.

@Ste_W wonderful! I will add a link to it!
It has many tips to learn!

I’m not sure how much I have to say but yeah!

Would it be useful to update/extend the examples that ship with the KaTeX edition in the “HelloThere” tiddler?

Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/blob/master/editions/katexdemo/tiddlers/HelloThere.tid

title: HelloThere

This is a TiddlyWiki plugin for mathematical and chemical typesetting based on KaTeX from Khan Academy.

It is completely self-contained, and doesn't need an Internet connection in order to work. It works both in the browser and under Node.js.

! Installation

To add the plugin to your own TiddlyWiki5, just drag this link to the browser window:

[[$:/plugins/tiddlywiki/katex]]

! Using KaTeX

The usual way to include ~LaTeX is to use `$$`, as shown in the examples below.

The underlying KaTeX widget is provided under the name `<$latex>` and is also available under the alias `<$katex>`. It's better to use the generic `<$latex>` name unless you are running multiple ~LaTeX plugins and wish to specifically target KaTeX.

Hi Jeremy,
I think it is good to have some demo/example tiddler can be opened from HelloThere, to keep it small and clean!
Also, If you think, like tiddlywiki.com, it is good to add community links, then I would recommend to add links of sample wikis in this thread!

This brings me memories… from 13 years ago:

http://algebralineal.tiddlyspot.com/

My class notes for my undergrad students… seems like another life ago… I’m happy that TW is my companion in these several reincarnations and versions of myself .

(Sorry for reviving old threads, I’m catching up. But please me let me know if there is some community netiquette against).

We hope to have the whole forum as a long lived resource. Not a problem to add comments at all!

Ideally we can even make a native TW export of the forum’s content available:

Is the experiment to build a configurable calcular that also can be used as a formula builder

Just for the sake of learning, I “duplicated” a blog post and made a TiddlyWiki + KaTeX example.

Note I requested permission from the author to share this example and he kindly accepted in writing.
