Places I’ve switched from LaTeX to Typst: My resume, research papers. Markdown was never a serious contender for my resume, since I want to control the rendering and the layout.

Places I’ve switched from Markdown to Typst: Slides. There are some okay Markdown-to-HTML solutions, but they have this unfortunate side-effect that you move the slides to some other computer, and something breaks in your rendering. PDFs ftw.

Are there journals/conferences that accept typst for typesetting yet? It is probably my main reason for staying in LaTeX.

Perhaps you can use pandoc to turn Typst into Latex and then do the little dance of making it compatible with the provided headers?

[ The latter is painful no matter what; once, I had a paper that I simply could not get to compile with the journal's header and had to give it to a wizard for examination. He did some manual TeX shenanigans resulting in a big blob of raw TeX at the preamble and it all worked. ]

the pandoc typst reader is a bit barebones, it doesn’t support packages (understandable) and seems to get confused with functions for me…though it’s been a bit since i tried it

How do you submit your research papers written in Typst?

I really wish typst had a good way to emit html. Id love to use it for blogging & technical writing and documentation.

(Typst dev here.) That's one of the next big things we plan to work on once Typst 0.12 has shipped. :)

I can’t wait! Thankyou for all your work - I really appreciate what you’re building!
