Implement MathLive Toolbar #722

Open alexrcabral opened 5 years ago

alexrcabral commented 5 years ago

We should implement MathLive as the basis for the palette. It has a more complete set of symbols, as well as a tabbing system.

This should function as the current palette does.

Current:

MathLive Editor:

Proposed integration:

Have you evaluated this for a11y? The current version on mathlive.io doesn't appear to be accessible in a few brief experiments.

I would really need a list of exactly what is needed to make this a compliant, agreeable solution for us:

As we evaluate all of the above and see how much work might be required to bridge those gaps, it might be a better approach to list what major features of the mathlive keyboard we do like and see how much work it would be to evolve our current palette in line with those requirements.
