Typst is a collaborative, cloud-based platform for technical writing designed to offer an alternative to the long-established LaTeX standard. They have developed customized markup and typesetting technology that simplifies the process of creating intricate, well-structured documents. In the immediate future, Typst targets academics to become the leading technical typesetting solution and build a base for sales to commercial R&D labs. Given that LaTeX, the primary alternative, has been in use for 40 years, there is a clear demand for a new solution in this field.
