Reach for Markdown, not LaTeX
Markdown can do quite a lot, but it doesn&#x27;t have any way to write mathematical formulae. Since that&#x27;s 90% of why I use LaTeX in most cases it seems silly to recommend Markdown. LaTeX has a superset of features, and is well suited to what it does properly (typesetting). Markdown is quick and easy to use, so it&#x27;s good for blog posts.
