Creating a package using the Chirun Reference Guide

To create a basic working example in Chirun, create a TeX file in the editor of your choice and paste the following packages into your preamble, between your \documentclass{article} and \begin{document} commands. Then add your own LaTeX content between the \begin{document} and \end{document} commands.

For a working example built upon these packages, see the Chirun Reference Guide. This is a work in progress, but shows a range of LaTeX elements converted to HTML.
