For getting into the academic publishing space this makes perfect sense. Good to hear about HTML being in the roadmap!

How do you envision the process of submitting to journals looking?

MSWord and Latex are normal in this space and I’m not aware of any that take PDFs for the obvious reason that journals want control of the rendering. I can only presume that this is somewhat of a fraught tech lock-in that resists new formats/languages/backends.

Yeah, that might be a problem that must be gradually solved through partnerships, outreach, and an eventual community. We already talked to a publishing industry rep about this.

In the meantime, many conferences just want camera-ready PDFs for their proceedings. Additionally, Typst will be useful in a university/lab/research group context and for tech reports right away!
