Have you tried with ConTeXt? As LaTeX, it's built atop TeX - though it's not as modular (and popular) it's more powerful.

I'd like to like Typst, but (as mentioned the other day) it follows the same model as LaTeX - great for some predefined styles, but the moment you want or need something different you'd need to get third party plugins, and with that all the perks and cons they may have.

Have you taken a look at my text editor, KeenWrite?

https://keenwrite.com/screenshots.html

The text processing chain for KeenWrite is:

    Markdown (input) -> XHTML (export) -> ConTeXt (import) -> PDF (output)
The look and feel of the final PDF document is controlled by a theme, which allows complete customization.
