%## Tips and hints

%* Name a file “.md” to have it render in markdown, name it “.html” to render in HTML. %* Go to the commit list (on your repo) to find %the last version Github built with Jekyll. % * Green check: successful build % * Orange circle: building % * Red X: error % * No icon: not built

%## Resources % * Liquid syntax guide % * MathJax Documentation

%## MathJax

%Support for MathJax Version 3.0 is included in the template:

%\(%\displaylines{ %\nabla \cdot E= \frac{\rho}{\epsilon_0} \\\ %\nabla \cdot B=0 \\\ %\nabla \times E= -\partial_tB \\\ %\nabla \times B = \mu_0 \left(J + \varepsilon_0 \partial_t E \right) %} %\)

%The default delimiters of $$...$$ and \\[...\\] are supported for displayed mathematics, while \\(...\\) should be %used for in-line mathematics (ex., \(a^2 + b^2 = c^2\))

%Note that since Academic Pages uses Markdown which cases some interference with MathJax and LaTeX for escaping %characters and new lines, although some workarounds exist.

%## Markdown guide

%Academic Pages uses kramdown for Markdown rendering, which has some %differences from other Markdown implementations such as GitHub’s. In addition to this guide, please see the kramdown %Syntax page for full documentation.
