matrix rendering

[justletmecreatetheaccount]

hello !

mdbook-katex don't render my matrices but they're syntax good since https://katex.org/#demo is showing me the matrix without error

here is an example of the "buggy" code:

$$\begin{bmatrix}P & Q \\\frac{\text{d}x}{\text{d}s} & \frac{\text{d}y}{\text{d}s} \\ \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix} \frac{\partial u}{\partial x} \\ \frac{\partial u}{\partial y} \\ \end{bmatrix}= \begin{bmatrix} R \\ \frac{\text{d}u}{\text{d}s} \\ \end{bmatrix}$$

mdbook-katex process it well because dollars signs gets removed when katex enabled, but it does not show me my matrix, but only the latex text

Is the problem coming from me ?

Here is my book.toml

[book]
authors = ["[Vlad Doniga]"]
language = "fr"
multilingual = false
src = "src"
title = "LEPL1103 - Notes"

[preprocessor.katex]
after = ["links"]
throw-on-error = false

[output.html]
# theme = "my-theme"
default-theme = "light"
preferred-dark-theme = "ayu"
# curly-quotes = true
# mathjax-support = false
# copy-fonts = true
# additional-css = ["custom.css", "custom2.css"]
# additional-js = ["custom.js"]
# no-section-label = false
git-repository-url = "https://github.com/MoinesCopistes/lepl1103"
git-repository-icon = "fa-github"
additional-css = ['mdbook-admonish.css','katex-supp.css']
# edit-url-template = "https://github.com/rust-lang/mdBook/edit/master/guide/{path}"
# site-url = "/example-book/"
# cname = "myproject.rs"
# input-404 = "not-found.md"

But anyway, thank you for building this tool, it's like REALLY helpful !

anyway..just had to use the gnu build version... do you know why this issue is happening ?

I really feel bad for the hoops you had to jump through to get the correct installation.

The reason why Windows users need to use the GNU build is discovered in #39 and referenced in the "Caveats" section in the README.

People have opened several issues for this exact same problem although the "Getting Started" section in the README tells Windows people what to do.

@justletmecreatetheaccount, could you provide some suggestions as of where I should put the documentation so people would read it?

Just did :D #99
