## KaTeX Syntax for Markdown
In your Markdown content, use the `katex` shortcode for inserting KaTeX. Check documentation for [Shortcode: katex]({{< relref "/docs/shortcodes.md#shortcode-katex" >}}).
**Here's an example Markdown content:**
```md
When {{</* katex inline */>}} a \ne 0 {{</* /katex */>}}, there are two solutions to
{{</* katex */>}} ax^2 + bx + c = 0 {{</* /katex */>}}
and they are:
{{</* katex */>}}
x = {-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} \over 2a}
{{</* /katex */>}}
```
**Output:**
When {{< katex inline >}} a \ne 0 {{< /katex >}}, there are two solutions to
{{< katex >}} ax^2 + bx + c = 0 {{< /katex >}}
and they are:
{{< katex >}}
x = {-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} \over 2a}
{{< /katex >}}
## Customize KaTeX Configuration
You can customize the default behavior of KaTeX if you want.
Minimo picks up configuration for KaTeX from the **`/data/config/katex.json`** file.
The default configuration options look like this:
```json
{
"library": {
"js": {
"main": "//unpkg.com/katex/dist/katex.min.js",
"autoRender": "//unpkg.com/katex/dist/contrib/auto-render.min.js"
},
"css": {
"main": "//unpkg.com/katex/dist/katex.min.css"
}
},
"options": {}
}
```
- `library` [`Object`]:
- `js` [`Object`]:
- `main` [`String`]: URL for the main KaTeX library
- `autoRender` [`String`]: URL for the [auto-render extension](https://khan.github.io/KaTeX/docs/autorender.html)
- `css` [`Object`]:
- `main` [`String`]: URL for the main KaTeX stylesheet
- `options` [`Object`]:
- _[KaTeX configuration options](https://khan.github.io/KaTeX/docs/options.html)_
So, if you want to tinker with it's configuration options:
- Create a `/data/config/katex.json` file in your site's repository
- Copy the default configuration options
- Start hacking
