https://github.com/JuliaPlots/MakieTeX.jl does that… But without the DVI parsing part, since that’s pretty complicated…
The simple answer is: It’s super hard to ship latex with a package, and then make it spit out the correct text layout information… Certainly not impossible, but for the LaTeX support we ship natively with Makie, an approach like MathTeXEngine is much preferred.
Anyways, feel free to implement the dvi parsing, i’d be very happy to have that
