Atlas of Mathematical Objects

I was wondering how it was built since equations aren't the nicest things to render with HTML. A quick 'view source' shows the site is using MathJax (not MathML) for displaying the equations.

I presume a lot of content is submitted or formatted using Tex/Latex. Can any HN'ers elaborate on the workflow for review/editing/publishing on the site?

The simple reason for mathjax is,that it is the only one that has many of the required features and it works across browsers. MathML can't deliver any of that...

Thanks for that link. In one of the MD files[0], I found information on the editorial board.
