## Math Support

### Inline Math

Inline math uses single dollar signs with strict whitespace rules:
- Valid: `$x^2$`, `$E=mc^2$`
- Invalid: `$ x^2$` (space after `$`), `$x^2 $` (space before `$`)

### Display Math

Display math uses double dollar signs and converts to equation blocks:

```markdown
$$
E = mc^2
$$
```

Becomes:

```
| equation
E = mc^2
```

## Demo Application

A live demo application is included in the `demo/` directory:

```bash
cd demo/
sh make.sh
```

Then open `build/index.html` in your browser.
