I never thought this would happen, but: I am quickly getting won over by Typst and moving to abandon LaTeX.
Not to brag -- except okay, I guess I totally am -- In grad school and afterwards, I was really, really good with LaTeX and made some fantastic stuff, especially with TikZ.
But...Typst is simpler, easier, closer to Markdown, less idiosyncratic...*sigh*
Пока я собирался учить #nushell, проект превратился в нейропомои. Оболочки нового поколения у нас не будет, остаётся дальше сидеть на примитивном fish и грустить.
Хотя бы #typst [раком не заразился](https://github.com/typst/typst/commit/7f6e625285329ccda6e117b3a57291959d2684f1).
+1 Typst is fantastic.
I used to use it with org-mode exporter (https://github.com/jmpunkt/ox-typst) which is even more fantastic for emacs users.
+2 for reveal.js which is simple and many developers use it

PS: You should be using more hashtags for reach (toot to get more audience)
If you are using Typst to edit a document and you "refer to" later or earlier sections – it is definitely lifesaving if you move text around, helps keep track of repetitions, causes errors if you remove the section and helps the reader avoid scrolling/searching through the text. It also adds polish.
Definitely a must if you're e.g. writing a thesis.
Example:
== Section 1 <banana>
== Section 2
#link(<banana>)[In an earlier section], we elaborated on...
Eigentlich wollte ich Hausaufgaben für den Sprachkurs machen, aber bin in ein Rabbithole zu #LaTeX bzw. jetzt #typst Libraries gefallen um ein Glossar für Vokabeln zu pflegen. Weil typst unicode nativ nutzen kann, ist das für Vokabeln mit Sonderzeichen besser geeignet...
Nun denn werde ich mich auch mal diesem modernen Schnickschnack wie typst zuwenden. Vielleicht bin ich ja positiv überrascht.
After fighting with typst *all day* because of it's lack of any cross-file introspection, I have finally made myself a workaround that works and doesn't make me horribly anxious.
Just set a bunch of show rules so that your include doesn't render anything in the final document! If you do that, your labels and state variables all import just fine! This totally won't break!
I hate it, devs please let me query another file, please.
Hieroglyphic allows you to search through over 1000 different symbols by sketching.

Thanks to the exciting work done by @bnyro, Hieroglyphic can now also recognize #Typst symbols, in addition to LaTeX.
