Editing (Java only)

Overview

The MathFlow SDK editing components are WYSIWYG MathML equation editors. There are three levels of editors, ranging from simple editing to advanced editing, as shown below. For each editor, there is a Java applet version (which can be embedded in web pages) and a Java application version (which can be embedded in desktop applications).
