Install a handy Latex Equation Editor

In summary, the conversation revolves around the difficulty of learning the latex code system used on a website and the suggestion to install a user-friendly latex equation editor. The suggestion is supported by a link to a website that offers an easy-to-use equation editor. However, it is noted that the website already has a Latex GUI, which the person was not aware of. The conversation ends with a suggestion for the PF administrator to improve or develop the Latex GUI as it is not considered user-friendly.

I find it very difficult to learn the latex code system this website uses.
Why don't you people install a User-Friendly Latex equation editor on your website?
I found this one-

http://www.codecogs.com/latex/install.php"

It is very easy to use and less-time consuming!
All you have to do is to type the equation in the box ( in the pop-up window after installing ) and copy to the document.

Thanks for the info.
But its not that User Friendly. It takes some time to switch between different tabs and the symbols to load ( I have enough internet speed ). PF administrator should consider improving/developing it.
