I’d be curious to hear peoples thoughts on Scribble (“The Racket Documentation Tool”) vs Typst. Maybe someone’s already done that at some link somewhere?

Can it output latex? I had used Pandoc before, and for cases when I needed to submit the latex source files it was simply another output option. Could typst be made to do the conversion?

[image] tbeason: Could typst be made to do the conversion? Typst does not spit out latex. There is pandoc support, but my experience for anything marginally complex was not amazing. Though in fairness that was more than a year ago so things may have improved. If LaTeX is required, I don’t thi…

I’ve used LyX for some 15 years; before that, I used Scientific WorkPlace - SWP - for some 15+ years. I see the advantages of Overleaf, but I dislike writing documents in an ASCII editor – I want to be able to see the document structure as I type (e.g., headlines for ease of navigation), and I alwa…

A bit late to the party, but for me, typst looks very interesting in the long run. What hasn’t been mentioned here so far (I think): Does anyone have experience with TikZ-like functionality in typst? I heard that there are some similar packages in the making ( cetz – Typst Universe ), but I have no …

[image] Jake: Just wondering how PDF24 works as a free alternative to Acrobat? Good to know this exists! I have free access to Adobe products through my employer (a college), and actually I just used their web tool without signing in. But that was just for expedience, I didn’t rigorously comp…

I’ve made a pretty generic manuscript quarto template that uses Typst to render the pdf and have found it works pretty nicely. It’s here in case you want to explore how this might work for your context. I usually save the intermediate .typ files and can use pandoc to convert to .docx if necessary, t…

I made this in CeTZ. I’ve only used TikZ a hand full of times and stumbled my way through it. This was much easier. However, to a TikZ power user I suspect it falls short.

There are a few library that build on CeTZ

GitHub - cetz-package/cetz-plot: Create Plots and Charts with CeTZ
GitHub - cetz-package/cetz-venn: Draw simple venn diagrams using CeTZ
GitHub - Jollywatt/typst-fletcher: Typst package for drawing diagrams with arrows, built on top of CeTZ.
