    Simon Willison builds a shareable LaTeX renderer with Claude Code

    Simon Willison built LaTeX renderer using Claude Code (Opus 5.5 Extra), inspired by Tiny Little Office's approach to storing documents in URL fragments. The tool renders equations with MathJax and documents or prose fragments with faster-latex, offering a live preview and switches between editing and rendered views. Users can enter source, load a URL or GitHub Gist, and share readable or compressed links.
