MathJax vs. Multiple.js vs. ggplot2 vs. jQuery Comparison Chart

A JavaScript display engine for mathematics that works in all browsers. Beautiful and accessible math in all browsers No more setup for readers, it just works. MathJax provides tools to transform your content from traditional print sources into modern, accessible web content and ePubs. The MathJax team is available to train your staff in using our resources for preparing online teaching material and creating accessible STEM content. MathJax is highly flexible and can be tailored to the needs of your institution by creating customized configurations and specialized software workflows. MathJax uses CSS with web fonts or SVG, instead of bitmap images or Flash, so equations scale with surrounding text at all zoom levels. MathJax is highly modular on input and output. Use MathML, TeX, and ASCIImath as input and produce HTML+CSS, SVG, or MathML as output. MathJax works with screenreaders & provides expression zoom and interactive exploration.

ggplot2 is a system for declaratively creating graphics, based on The Grammar of Graphics. You provide the data, tell ggplot2 how to map variables to aesthetics, what graphical primitives to use, and it takes care of the details. ggplot2 is now over 10 years old and is used by hundreds of thousands of people to make millions of plots. That means, by-and-large, ggplot2 itself changes relatively little. When we do make changes, they will be generally to add new functions or arguments rather than changing the behavior of existing functions, and if we do make changes to existing behavior we will do them for compelling reasons. If you are new to ggplot2 you are better off starting with a systematic introduction, rather than trying to learn from reading individual documentation pages.
