Using Pandoc and Typst to Produce PDFs (imaginarytext.ca)
I recently responded to someone on Mastodon who asked about producing decent-looking PDFs from markdown. I replied eagerly with “OMG Typst!” and linked to my earlier blogpost about developing an entire book layout template for Pandoc and Typst. The response I then received was this was “far beyond” what they need – and on reflection I had to admit that my blog post was a bit, well, niche.
