Add embedded MathJax about markdown-preview

[kevinsawicki]

Currently we use marked to render the markdown to HTML.

Looks like MathJax support has already been PRed there: markedjs/marked#180

How precisely do you make the snippet above work?

[aybabtme]

This would be very nice.

Agreed, +1 for this!

See also KaTeX, Khan Academy's synchronous latex renderer and the recently active discussion on github/markup#274. If Github enables support for rendering embedded latex in markdown (which at least now sounds probable), it would be nice if atom supported the same conventions.

Gosh, if atom and github had good/consistent latex support ... it would be hard to overstate what a boon this could be for scientific publishing and reproducible research.

Referencing recent discussion of this in #116

Looking forward to Github and Atom to to add MathJax into standard markdown.

Have a look into markdown preview plus, which supports mathjax.

This is (now) a duplicate of #116. I'm closing this one in favor of the newer one because there has been significantly more discussion there. Please subscribe to #116 for updates.
