Math support in Markdown

GitHub has introduced native support for rendering mathematical expressions in Markdown, a feature that had been highly requested for over eight years. This new capability allows users to incorporate math expressions using TeX and LaTeX style syntax with the $ and $$ delimiters, which are then rendered through the MathJax library. The update aims to enhance communication among engineers, scientists, data scientists, and mathematicians by facilitating the inclusion of complex mathematical formulas directly in GitHub documentation. The implementation was announced by Martin Woodward and Tali Herzka, with an invitation for the GitHub community to explore and utilize this feature.
