I need to play with Typst. I've been using Markdown and converting that to LaTeX with Pandoc for quite awhile, and that more or less works, but I've had issues when I need any non-standard formatting, like specific placement of something like a title page.
Typst looks like it might be the solution to this problem.
Yeah, last week, I took a few minutes to convert my mdbook draft to typst (most of it was renaming files, adding a main,typ and replacing `*` with `*`, `#` with `=` - I didn't have any tables), then happily proceeded from there and towards a beautiful (draft) book.
I'm quite happy about the workflow.
Plus now I have a template that I'll apply to the second book.
