Messing around with Typst, something of a Latex-meets-Markdown layout language. This might be just what I need to finish that Tedium wall calendar I’ve been threatening for the past five to seven years.

This wouldn’t be the *best* choice for doing more nuanced layout, say cutouts and things like that. But this has a ton of potential for repeatable design.

Tool is commercial, markup language is open-source.

The tool I used for this is called Typesetter, which is a Linux app on Flathub. Kind of impressed.

I feel like that split layout style that the markdown editor Mou originated in the early 2010s has proven super-influential even if Mou itself is forgotten.

Used it to build a social object. Not bad. The dots were actually made with Typst.
