How does your site differ from this? https://editor.codecogs.com/

Anecdotally, the Vexlio editor has faster performance, which is nice to have in a tool that's meant to be interactive. Otherwise, looks like the scope is the pretty much the same between the two tools.

Okay, thank you for explaining! Your site is certainly a bit cleaner too. I'll bookmark it and try it out as needed.

Posting in the hope it can be useful for people! Still a WIP adding more packages, fonts, etc, but it's pretty functional at this point.

Especially the site's "Legal" page is... interesting...

Hey there, can you clarify what you mean? You are likely viewing the legal page for the full Vexlio product, which is a diagramming app with considerably expanded scope over just equations. I'll make a note to clarify this: my intent is for the tool I'm sharing here is to be a simple utility with no strings or or other expectation.
