This morning I'm looking at .
The first thing in the tutorial (https://typst.app/docs/tutorial/writing-in-typst/) is how to write a header, and it annoys me that it makes the same mistake HTML, and everything following HTML, made: you specify the level of the heading absolutely, and it's not scoped to a section of the document.

So when you want to have a heading one level lower, you have to know what level the previous heading was. And you can't tell how much of the document the heading applies to, only inferring it as going until the next header of the same or higher level.

I've always wondered why has
\section{name}
instead of
\begin{section}{name} ... \end{section}

Am I alone in wanting this?

all to get super real stuff done.

A mug full of hot chocolate, pajamas, and a relaxed mood…

I will be spending the afternoon of this year’s Christmas Eve finally learning .

I will do so starting from ’s slides on the topic. They are very well done.

https://slides.poul.org/2023/latex/1-thinking-with-latex

teiolass,

@tommi May I suggest to give a chance? It's segnificatively easier to learn and all the people I know who tried it (all of them proficient latex users for years) don't want to come back

tommi,
@tommi@pan.rent avatar

@teiolass I have never heard of before your toot. I looked it up, and it seems great indeed!

I will dive into it more during the holidays.

Thanks also to @alerque!

I haven't tried yet, but if it has good error messages, native SVG support, and plugins, is there any chance it's not amazing? I'm so stoked to check it out now.

Here is a small Quarto extension using Typst to generate invoices as PDF.

It's pretty simple to use and configure. (You need Quarto 1.4 https://quarto.org/docs/prerelease/1.4/typst.html)

https://github.com/mcanouil/quarto-invoice

Side note: if you do not know Typst (https://typst.app/), you should really take a look. It's a bit like LaTeX but without headaches.

playing around with recently - very amazing and powerful!

after writing some simpler things, i'm working on creating a cv/cover letter for myself that i am totally overengineering (for fun)

Wow, did you know that already supports as input and output!?

How cool is that!? 🚀 📄

Dovete scrivere dei paper? O, più frivolmente, volete scrivere giochi di ruolo con un discreto layout? Odiate Word, non siete mai riusciti a venire a patti con LaTeX e volete qualcosa tipo il markdown come difficoltà? Date una possibilità a #typst ( https://typst.app ). C'è sia l'IDE online che l'interprete, è molto promettente e con pochi sbattimenti sono riuscito a creare il layout 2colonne + sfondo di D&D3 :-)

Playing around with it’s like a dream come true so far. I edit in , changes show up in the generated pdf very quickly with the command line tool in watch mode. No fussing around with ponderous toolchains. Next up converting a medium size doc with a lot of equations from .

Thanks to some incredible toil+creativity by one of our equally incredible designers at work, I should have a decent example of using + + Plot + (ofc) to generate data-driven PDF reports with a fairly complex multi-page layout ready to blog and git sometime next week.

Typst was recommended to me as a very promising fresh replacement for . After using LaTeX for decades, I'm still skeptical but let's watch how this turns out.

The result of my first tinkering with :

#let LATEX = {  
 [L];box(move(  
 dx: -4.2pt, dy: -1.2pt,  
 box(scale(65%)[A])  
 ));box(move(  
 dx: -5.7pt, dy: 0pt,  
 [T]  
));box(move(  
 dx: -7.0pt, dy: 2.7pt,  
 box(scale(100%)[E])  
));box(move(  
 dx: -8.0pt, dy: 0pt,  
 [X]  
));h(-8.0pt)  
}

It is possible that #LATEX will soon be obsolete.

Yesterday a university colleague told me about as modern rust based alternative and I had an immediate "a-dream-comes-true"-feeling.🤓

Well, I managed to not use Substack's post scheduler well once more and have just unstuck it from today's Weekend Project Edition publishing tomorrow.

This week's WPE features + , with some , Observable Plot, and thrown in for good measure.

We review two custom Quarto Typst templates and challenge y'all to customize them or make some of your own.
