Exploring Typst: A LaTeX Alternative
Although my educational background is not in STEM, I have been using LaTeX for approximately seventeen years. I am a fan of its typesetting capabilities but try not to be a LaTeX evangelist — or a LaTeX snob. I keep an open mind towards possible alternatives; I have dabbled with the LyX document processor (which uses LaTeX as its typesetting engine) as well as the GNU TeXmacs scientific editor (not based on LaTeX but inspired by it). I am aware of the SILE typesetter (which contains a port of the TeX line-breaking algorithm) as well as the old-school groff (also known as GNU roff) typesetting system. To date, I have not yet experimented with either SILE or groff.
