typst looks interesting -- but how are you writing it? from what I looked at, it looks like theres an official web editor and a vscode plugin with limited support. this feels pretty limited, as someone who came in expecting something like obsidian.

I've started experimenting with Typst for a few documents, and here's my stack:

- Zed editor with Typst plugin

- Tinymist LSP settings turned on to render on save in Zed, see https://code.millironx.com/millironx/nix-dotfiles/src/commit...

- Okular open to the output document. Okular refreshes the document when changed on disk.

It's not as polished as say, LaTeX Workshop in VSCode, but it gets the job done.

I'm not aware of any limitations in the Tinymist plugin.

And you can just write it in the plain text editor of your choice, and keep an eye on the PDF with typst watch.

I looked into this a while ago, and couldn't find a workflow I could live with. Have things improved? What's the workflow like for working on an image in, say, OmniGraffle to include in the document? Does text search in embedded PDFs work these days? LinkBack so I can edit the images easily inline?

you can just install the typst compiler yourself and let it run in the cli

    typst watch file.typ // compiles automatically on file changes

You can write Typst in any editor you like, and the Typst compiler is FOSS available.

I write Typst code from emacs personally

Typst really does look good. Can one get an editor with live PDF preview ? It would be useful mainly for immediate feedback on markup correctness; then an HTML output ought to be "close enough".

Tinymist in VS Code does this out of the box (and looks like it can be set up in other editors). That or you can configure it to save out a new PDF automatically on save or as you edit the document and just open it in a PDF viewer that'll reload when the file changes.
