Typst 0.13 released
Typst is "A new markup-based typesetting system that is powerful and easy to learn". It's written in Rust, and particularly attractive because, while providing a CLI interface, it is a proper library that you can easily incorporate into your progress to produce documents. Protip: If you do so, have a look at sys.inputs, it's awesome!

Typst is just awesome, highly recommended.
It is an add in disguise for commercial project.
We live in a capitalist society. Most of Typst is open source including the CLI, library, and IDE support; and the source is Rust so why not share in a Rust community?
What is? What do you mean?
I think what [email protected] is getting at is that Typst also a paid web app developed by a for-profit company. This same company is who manages the github repo for the Typst language compiler. They seem to take issue that this post is promoting a partially open-source project for a for-profit company.
But typst itself is fully open-source. Saying it’s a „partially open-source project” is a mischaracterization. You don’t need to use the web IDE and it’s not strictly part of the „typst project”
While you missed the mark here since typst has all the important stuff open (I wouldn't use the web interface even if it was free/open source), I appreciate that you're keeping an eye open.
If you were in r*ddit's rust community a few years ago, you probably would have been banned, just like me😄

Things got so silly to the point where I made this jerk post (archive link) about one of these silly posts.
Kudos to them if they can provide fundings for open source typst.
