Overview LaTweet! converts Markdown and LaTeX markup to Unicode suitable for microblogging sites (Twitter, Threads, BlueSky, Mastodon, etc.), but can also be useful for general conversion to Unicode for other purposes (e.g., communicating math over email). Longer threads are automatically split into multiple posts, with adjustable per-post character limits, and the ability to add numbering or images to post drafts. It runs in the browser, providing real-time feedback as you type. Installing and Running To install locally, you just need three files: - LaTweet.html - unicode-data.js - logo.svg Alternatively, you can clone the whole repository github.com/keenancrane/latweet . You should then be able to open LaTweet.html in any modern browser. No further setup or dependencies need to be installed locally. However, you must be connected to the internet (in order to load packages via CDN.) Usage LaTeX Math Mathematical expressions can be written using standard LaTeX syntax. The tool converts them to Unicode symbols, following the same conventions as unicodeit , plus a few extra features. Inline math using \\(...\\) or $...$ : → The quadratic formula is x = (-b ± √(b² - 4ac))/2a. Display math using \\[...\\] with automatic centering: → E = mc² Text Formatting Standard LaTeX commands can be used for rich text formatting. For example: → Bold text , italic text , and monospace code .
