Descriptions

Welcome to the staging ground for new communities! Each proposal has a description in the "Descriptions" category and a body of questions and answers in "Incubator Q&A". You can ask questions (and get answers, we hope!) right away, and start new proposals.

Are you here to participate in a specific proposal? Click on the proposal tag (with the dark outline) to see only posts about that proposal and not all of the others that are in progress. Tags are at the bottom of each post.

Typst

Community Name

Typst

Description

Typst is a typesetting system which includes a full programming language. It markets itself as a competitor to TeX, LaTeX, ConTeXt, etc.

Topics

Topics covered would include:

  • The Typst programming language
  • Creation of plugins
  • How-tos for document preparation

Exclusions

These topics or types of posts would be out of scope:

  • Eh, writing advice, probably?

Special Features

Typst code highlighting would be nice.

Overlaps

In principle, this could perhaps be merged with the TeX proposal to create one for document preparation systems, which would then also include SILE and a few others. I'm not at all sure that that's a good idea, but it probably should be considered as an option.
