I strand by my comment. Replicate core TeX (and LaTeX) core features is easy (text layout, hyphenation, line breaking, math typesetting, etc. all are solved issue, often with many independent implementation that are as good as TeX‘s if not better), the issues that holds most people are packages and decades of TeX/LaTeX legacy.
