Typst is fucking amazing. LaTeX is powerful but just takes too much effort to use for large part of the population to the point that I just can't recommend it to most people outside STEM. Typst is consistent, easier to use, faster, and collaborative. With no nonsensical error messages, broken builds, and technical debt - I can actually recommend it to most.
