Just wanted to shout out the Fountain plugin for VS Code: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=piersdes.... Nice syntax highlighting and generates a live preview as you type which you can then export as a PDF. After trying to format things vaguely correctly in Google Docs for a while it felt like I could finally focus on just writing the dang screenplay!

Very nice work. I'm interested in how you implemented the page-count/timing of a Fountain script; could you give a high-level overview?
