We need a better literate backend for academic writing

Open imkiva opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

We at least need:

  • math formula
  • bibliography
  • something like \section, \subsection and \ref, \cref
  • no layout-based grammar
  • (?) integrate with JavaScript+CSS for IDE features in the rendered page

There are some candidates:

  • BTeX: https://www.bananaspace.org/wiki/%E5%B8%AE%E5%8A%A9:%E7%BC%96%E8%BE%91%E9%A1%B5%E9%9D%A2
  • Typst: https://typst.app/docs/tutorial/writing-in-typst/ , but it uses a different syntax for math

You don't need \section, you need \label.

Is it possible to support multiple literate backends?
