Deyan GinevIn one day - one day! - of going open source, the Typst typesetting system passed 5,000 stars on Github.
If you ever needed evidence that there is a real hunger for a TeX replacement, this is it.
Ian Tindale@dginev which typesetters can this be used on?
If I understood correctly, currently Typst is a standalone tool for creating PDF files.
They have plans to emit HTML as well soon, which keeps some of us excited.
@dginev oh so it doesn’t directly connect to a typesetter or a phototypesetter
Not to my knowledge, no. They're trying to work at the TeX/LaTeX level of abstraction for the most part (I think).
