A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that converts LaTeX mathematical expressions to MathML format. And this README.md is written by DeepSeek V3.

Features

• Converts LaTeX mathematical expressions to MathML

• Provides both tool-based conversion and resource-based access

• Standard MCP protocol implementation for easy integration

• Lightweight and fast conversion using MathJax-node
