This is so lovely. I desperately wish I could color code all math!!
You can. Not only the code is there, but also an interactive editor.
Grows infinite hands
I experimented with something similar with LLMs. They can kinda do it for some stuff.
More interesting, you can ask a vision model to color parts of speech in img2img and it works OK for frontier models.
Agreed. It'd be super cool to see a Firefox/Chrome extension look for Latex equations on sites you were browsing and then cross-reference them against wiki/etc. and give them the math-equivalent of syntax highlighting.
Even more so if it worked with PDFs.
I already have way too many projects on the backburner right now... wink wink nudge nudge to anyone who wants to take this.

Hmm.
I don’t think that actually explains the idea of a momentum density transport equation well at all.
it's a lot of style over substance

Doesn't really explain anything, as most cool-looking things.
