Show HN: A Chrome extension that converts formula images to LaTeX

Hey everyone,

I recently built a free Chrome extension called Formula to LaTeX that lets you convert any formula from an image, screenshot directly into clean LaTeX code.

No signup. Just: 1. Paste or drag & drop an image of the formula 2. Get the LaTeX code instantly 3. Copy it with one click

It works great for math, physics, and chemistry formulas, super helpful if you're working on problem sets, papers, or presentations and don’t want to retype complex equations.

Would love any feedback! I'm still improving it, so feel free to roast it or share ideas
