About

xEditor

Features
Read full description

Разработанное с удобным и простым интерфейсом, приложение xEditor позволяет пользователям создавать документы с помощью текстового редактора, в который они могут легко вставлять математические формулы. В отличие от других приложений, требующих знания специфического синтаксиса математического языка, таких как LaTeX, редактор xEditor упрощает этот процесс. Пользователям просто нужно ввести простые символы, такие как "2 + 2" или "1 / 2^(3)", и приложение автоматически создаст математическую формулу в правильном формате, аналогичную тем, которые можно найти в учебниках по математике. В приложении также имеется поддержка VoiceOver, для обеспечения устной обратной связи для пользователей с нарушениями зрения.
