    Uploading an image fits the purpose but is not optimal I think (bandwith, server memory). I recently came upon Pandoc, which provides extensions (sub and superscript...) to the simple Markdown syntax. Having someting like Pandoc running on server side would be very nice when creating a question.

    Nicolas Pérenne supported this idea  ·

    I did try TeXify-Plickers, which looks nice but is unstable yet in my experience (strange behavior when you show up several questions in a row); furthermore one has to install the module on the teacher's computer in each classroom where you want to use it... so I support the request for some sort of math editor; if not as powerful as Microsoft Equation or LibreOffice Math, some wiki-like syntax (sub and superscript, greek letters and a few symbols) would be nice already
