LaTeX versions #1
Description
You have the original Mathematical notebook sources from which these PDFs are derived. I took a brief look at the notebook sources, and it seems to me that it should be possible to auto-generate LaTeX sources for these rules. A LaTeX version would be more useful for some applications and could be compiled to PDF, Markdown+MathJax, HTML, etc.

Yes, I agree that is possible. I always hope someone jumps on board who could work on this. I know several people from SE who already have nb -> markdown converters who basically do exactly this. With something like this, we could create the content for a webpage directly instead of using PDF files.
There is a downside though. Some of the rule notebooks are pretty large and contain many formulas. I'm not sure how performant MathJax will be if it is confronted with a 20 page long text that contains many many things to render.
Note that I updated this repo some minutes ago to represent Rubi engine version 4.16.0. With it, I included the code for creating the PDF files and the README automatically here.

KaTeX might work: https://katex.org/. It is not as bulletproof and full-featured as MathJax, but for most simple math expressions it works well, very quickly, and without page reflow.
Nice low-hanging fruit for a new contributor during the next Hacktoberfest!
