A word of appreciation.

Typst developers are among the best Rust citizens around. Not only do they have a cool project, but they also contribute a lot to the Rust ecosystem at large.

    Oh, that's good to know.

    I think this is a huge release of just because of accessibility, that's always been a pain point (read: basically impossible) with LaTeX, I heard ConTeXt is better there but I never got into it. typst on the other hand is very approachable and makes a lot of sense.

    While I don't need accessibility very much nowadays, it's basically a requirement for usage in the public sector here as PDF/UA. Which I guess is the main motivation.

    Looking forward to trying it out when it hits my repositories, which should be soonish.

    Another option is docbook, but I never particularly enjoyed working with that...
