Use Math in the Editor

Add and edit LaTeX math blocks and inline expressions inside the Edvello rich text editor.

Edvello’s rich text editor includes built-in math support with KaTeX rendering. You can insert inline expressions, add block equations, and edit them later without extra setup.

1. Insert inline math

  • Type $$your-latex$$ to instantly convert it into inline math.
  • Or open the toolbar and click Inline Expression (radical icon). If you have text selected, it becomes the LaTeX body.

2. Insert block math

  • Use the toolbar Block Expression (square root icon) or the / slash menu and pick Math → Block Expression.
  • A block equation appears on its own line; replace the default a^2 + b^2 = c^2 with your LaTeX.

3. Edit an existing equation

  • Click any math node (inline or block). A prompt appears with the current LaTeX.
  • Update the LaTeX and confirm to re-render the expression.

4. Quick tips

  • Inline math stays within a sentence; block math is best for standalone equations or derivations.
  • Use standard KaTeX/LaTeX syntax (fractions, roots, superscripts/subscripts, Greek symbols, etc.).
  • You can mix math with other formatting, tables, and media in the same document.
