MathCanvas is a visual equation editor that lets you create beautiful LaTeX expressions without memorizing LaTeX syntax. Enter fractions, square roots, integrals, summations, limits, exponents, subscripts, vectors, trigonometric functions, Greek letters, and more using a purpose-built math keyboard. The cursor appears directly inside the formatted equation, so you can edit expressions as naturally as writing mathematics on paper—without navigating raw LaTeX code. When your expression is complete, copy its LaTeX code and use it in reports, papers, notes, presentations, and other documents. Key features: Enter expressions directly in a formatted mathematical view Tap within an equation to move the insertion point Structured input for fractions, roots, integrals, summations, and limits Support for exponents, subscripts, and vector notation Trigonometric, logarithmic, exponential, and hyperbolic functions Latin letters, Greek letters, relation symbols, and set notation Undo, delete, and clear controls Copy completed expressions as LaTeX code Switch between Japanese and English MathCanvas is not a numerical calculator. It is a visual tool for constructing mathematical expressions and converting them into LaTeX code. Turn equation editing from writing code into drawing mathematics.
