I have now looked at so many "scientific authoring" solutions that want to rival LaTeX and every single one of them has a github discussion stating "Hey, please support SI quantities", an open pull request or kludgy plugin to that end.

My brothers and sisters in Science, typesetting SI quantities correctly is 50% of scientific publishing.

#quarto #mystmd #typst

#TIL that #mystMD and #mystParser are not the same thing? The former is a stand alone markdown converter the the latter is a #python package that allows #Sphinx to parse #Markdown so that I am not forever stuck with Restructured Text in #RTD?

This rambling has been brought to you by searching for admonitions in MyST and not understanding why the syntax wouldn't work for like half a blessed hour.

I have some #Python analyses spread over several #JupyterNotebooks. I want to put together a report, taking plots and tables from these notebooks. I understand #MystMD @mystmarkdown can do this for me, but I'm finding it hard to even get started... Any pointers much appreciated!!!🙏🙏🙏

@juandesant agreed! Also @mystmarkdown is going even further by making the markdown format as the primary format, skipping the LaTeX step. See the following for example. AGU and Scipy Proceedings are adopting this.
