I do love LaTeX. Wrote every thesis and paper with it. Using bibtex was a lifesaver as I didn’t have to care for citations and references. Not caring about numbering, footnotes or annotations and having them automatically is amazing. Also structuring the thesis or paper into multiple separate files that work with version control has web a game changer for me
Even now i'm not in university anymore I use LaTeX for my CV and any formal letter I have to send.
I too loved latex before I got into typst. Then I realized I just loved latex because it was the best thing I had at the time
Thank you for sharing! It really looks great! The deal breaker for me is the lack of a self hosted IDE option. Right now I use overleaf in a docker container and as far as I understood their web editor is proprietary. I’ll check it out in the future for sure!
I don't think you can self host typst.app, but you can just use any code editor. I think you can self host vs code for example and then use that. Or, you know, just do your stuff locally.
But of course, having a web collab thing is neat.
