Flutter TeX

A Flutter Package to render so many types of equations based on LaTeX, most commonly used are as followings:

  • Mathematics / Maths Equations (Algebra, Calculus, Geometry, Geometry etc...)

  • Physics Equations

  • Signal Processing Equations

  • Chemistry Equations

  • Statistics / Stats Equations

  • It also includes full HTML with JavaScript support.

Rendering of equations depends on mini-mathjax a simplified version of MathJax a JavaScript library.

This package mainly depends on webview_flutter plugin.

Only Tested on Android not on iOS because I don't own a Mac.

Use this package as a library in your flutter Application

1: Add this to your package's pubspec.yaml file:

dependencies:
  flutter_tex: ^0.0.19

2: You can install packages from the command line:

$ flutter packages get

Alternatively, your editor might support flutter packages get. Check the docs for your editor to learn more.

3: Now in your Dart code, you can use:

import 'package:flutter_tex/flutter_tex.dart';

4: Make sure to add this line android:usesCleartextTraffic="true" in your <project-directory>/android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml under application like this.

<application
       android:usesCleartextTraffic="true">
</application>

For iOS add following code in your <project-directory>/ios/Runner/Info.plist


<key>NSAppTransportSecurity</key>
  
  <dict>
    <key>NSAllowsArbitraryLoads</key> <true/>
  </dict>

<key>io.flutter.embedded_views_preview</key> <true/>
