LaTeX can do way, way more than math and text layout. My favorite example:

That isn't a photoshopped collage of different LaTeX creations. The diagrams,

LaTeX is a little like PostScript and Excel with autorun scripts: formats
conceived and developed prior to the software development insight that
separation of content and code need to be separate.
Nowadays it is accepted that content should be split into text and style,
but way back when, there wa

I’m not in academia, and have only had to deal with LaTeX once*. One of my
co-authors had an account on the early days of Overleaf, so we
Some of my colleagues teach it in conjunction with our Software
Carpentries stuff (but there's no formal Carpentries approved lesson
yet).
I have experimented with it for open scholarship publishing purposes.
Frankly, the more I think about it, the less I think it is worth dealing
with. Overl

Heya,
I was recently introduced to https://typst.app/ which IMO fills that niche of
enough LaTeX to get most of what you need.

Ah, LaTeX. I dabbled in it 30 years ago, and it's perpetually too far down my
list of things to actually learn it.
I've always treated it as a fantastic tool that I am happy to help folks
acquire and willing to cursorily support, but beyond that, they need to learn
and become the experts. T
Dear List,
How do you all deal with LaTeX? The LaTeX Project describes it as a
"high-quality typesetting system," but it *looks* similar to a few
different software paradigms, and this makes it hard to figure out who on a
university campus should be supporting it.
For example, one could make the
