On: Show HN: Arxiv Vanity – Read academic papers from Arxiv as responsive web pages

[bfirsh]

A lot of things. LaTeX and its packages have so much surface area. Our approach so far is to just make the papers that we read readable. That probably covers the 20% of LaTeX features that 80% of people use.

Here is the broken stuff we are keeping track of: https://github.com/arxiv-vanity/engrafo/issues (feel free to add to it!)

Is there a reason for relying on pandocfilters instead of on Panflute [1]?

I would think that panflute would allow for more readable code, which helps whendealing with all the corner cases and rough edges of latex.

Because we didn't know that existed! That looks so much better, thank you. The pandocfilters library is really hard to use.
