Produced by Union College Professor, Davide P. Cervone in 2004,[1] jsMath was built as a cross-platform solution to add mathematical equations in standard TeX notation to HTML pages.[2] As an alternative to MathML, jsMath was built to support different browsers on Microsoft Windows, Macintosh OS X, and Linux.[3]
While not officially discontinued, jsMath has not been updated since Version 3.6e on March 21st, 2010.[4]
jsMath was succeeded by MathJax,[5] another program that Cervone would contribute to.[1]
