I've invested a lot into LaTeX in the last few years and didn't feel a strong desire to pivot, but I just tried @typst.app and I'm an immediate convert
The compilation speed is so nice and it's so much easier to understand

Compose papers faster: Focus on your text and let Typst take care of layout and formatting.

(meanwhile, thereβs a package on Universe doing it by converting the PDF to an image and the web app can convert PDFs to SVGs on upload)
We just dropped some powerful new features: Now, you can π search across entire projects across files, create π¦ private packages and templates, and share projects securely through π¬ email invites.

For no reason at all, I moved my proposal template for manytomany.co from Apple Pages to @typst.app and it was so cool experience.
Ok, two reasons:
1. Now I can easily use LLMs to generate them π
2. I can store them in the repo and see the revisions.

Casually trying to recreate a document using @typst.app . It's been fun so far, and vastly more powerful out of the box than Markdown on its own

I've made a pretty, customisable Typst template that let's you write all your information in YAML, offers many different section layouts and allows a great deal of customisation.
