Install Matemium

Matemium is a desktop application with a bundled local rendering engine. The public installer experience is currently in early access.

LinuxEarly-access installer
WindowsPublic release in progress
macOSPublic release in progress
  1. Open the Matemium download page.
  2. Select an available build for your operating system.
  3. Sign in if the early-access download requires an account.
  4. Install the application using your platform’s normal installer flow.
  5. Start Matemium and allow the first-run assets to finish preparing.

The first launch can take longer than later launches because Matemium may prepare the bundled engine, TinyTeX, and optional intelligence assets.

  • Ubuntu 22.04 or newer on x86_64
  • FFmpeg available to the application
  • Enough free disk space for the engine, TinyTeX, render caches, and project output

If a .deb reports an unresolved FFmpeg dependency:

Terminal window
sudo apt -f install

Matemium can render without a cloud AI provider. To use external chat or agent workflows:

  1. Open Settings.
  2. Choose an OpenAI-compatible provider.
  3. Connect your account or add your own provider key.
  4. Select a model for the current workflow.

Provider billing and limits belong to the provider you select. Matemium does not resell model access.

Use this path for engine development or contribution—not as the normal desktop installation.

Terminal window
git clone https://github.com/fargonee/math.git
cd math
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -e ".[dev]"
./matemium.sh demo

Source renders require FFmpeg and a usable LaTeX installation. The packaged desktop application prefers its first-run TinyTeX asset.

Terminal window
./matemium.sh list
./matemium.sh demo

A successful demo writes output beneath outputs/demo/.
