@kevin tbh. i orginally thought that your post was satire. A good joke—but reading the comments, you seem to be serious.
Typst is not perfect. It is still maintained for a commercial product (at least it is maintained thoo), but it is significantly easier to use, faster and has a far more readable syntax imho, with fewer quirks than TeX. And the compiler errors actually make sense.
Having used both typst and LaTeX very extensively, I'm happy for the more modern alternative we have now.
