My limited understanding of MathJax is that it uses the browser to measure glyphs. KaTeX on the other hand includes metrics for many of its glyphs. Where things get a little tricky…

Does anyone know the actual spec for this binary AST can be found? In particular I'm curious about the format of each node type.

While SVG can do a lot, there are certain things that it isn't optimized for. In particular animating lots of shapes simultaneously. The animation of the globe exploding into a bun…
