tikzcd vs xymatrix #49

Closed ryankeleti closed 5 years ago

ryankeleti commented 5 years ago

what should we use? I was in favor of xymatrix for easy portability to the web if we decide to go that route, but tikzcd is definitely also nice (if not more verbose).

thosgood commented 5 years ago

I only used tikzcd because it's what I've always used, so I'm happy to switch to xymatrix for whatever reasons :-) what do mean by portability to the web though?

ryankeleti commented 5 years ago

in that there are extensions for rendering diagrams in browser (https://sonoisa.github.io/xyjax/xyjax.html) with xymatrix, but that's a ways off

thosgood commented 5 years ago

oh ok! if we ever wanted to make a site version of it, I think I'd rather go for KaTeX than MathJax, mainly because it's so much quicker to load, but either way, diagrams would probably need a bit of tinkering to work. I'm happy to stick to using xymatrix anyway though!

thanks! if the web version doesn't pan out, I'll probably change everything back to tikzcd anyways :,)
