Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The current version of KaTeX is 0.13.0, Idyll uses 0.9.0. In particular \newcommand and similar is supported in 0.13.0, but does not appear to be supported in 0.9.0. \newcommand is very useful for serious mathematical articles.

Describe the solution you'd like Update to 0.13.0.

Describe alternatives you've considered Could not think of alternatives (except bookdown :) ).

Research direction
Update the KaTeX dependency version in package.json from 0.9.0 to 0.13.0. Check the KaTeX changelog for any breaking changes and adjust import statements accordingly. Run the existing test suite to ensure no regressions. No linked PRs or assignee; the issue is open and stale.
