I’m interested in rendering inline LaTeX formulae, which is very useful for teams discussing maths stuff.
I see there is this issue which is now closed:

Adds latex highlighting support via https://www.npmjs.com/package/katex

Thought this was a pretty cool and unique feature over competitors, so why not :)
Highlighting is triggered by passing `tex` (or `latex`) as the language to a code block
Example:
``````
````tex
f(x) = \int_{-\infty}^\infty
\hat f(\xi)\,e^{2 \pi i \xi x}
\,d\xi
```` ---(remove me otherwise breaks highlight)
``````
I commented about 3 months ago but got no reply yet, that’s why I’m also posting a message here.
If inline math is already working, how? If not, would it be possible to add support for it?
No, I don’t think it renders inline at the moment. It’s only supported as a type of code block, like in the example on the pull request.
If a community member is interested in contributing a pull request for that we may consider adding it, the other option would be to open a feature request on it to gather support from other users.
