OurBigBook ships with several commonly used math macros enabled by default.
The full list of built-in macros can be seen at: default.tex.
Here's one example of using
\dv
from the physics
package for derivatives:$$
\dv{x^2}{x} = 2x
$$
which renders as:
Our goal is to collect the most popular macros from the most popular pre-existing LaTeX packages and make them available with this mechanism.
These built-in macros are currently only available on OurBigBook CLI and OurBigBook Web, not when using the JavaScript API directly. We should likely make that possible as well at some point.
In addition to default.tex, the KaTeX mhchem extension is also enabled to facilitate typesetting of chemical formulae with the
\ce
and \pu
macros.
