Typst is a very young but very promising markup language with use-cases similar to LaTeX. One big objective advantage of typst over LaTeX is compilation speed.

For that reason alone, it would be nice to be able to export org to PDF through typst.

Does anyone have a fledgling ox-typst implementation (open to contributions)?

    Hey! Yes, I have started working on one in July. I have also been working on documentation for org-export, because right now it simply doesn’t exist. No, reading org-element code is not documentation, and it’s not even “self-documentation”, because I had to read the code itself and not the automatically generated documentation that appears when I use `C-h f`, since the actual docstrings are templated garbage. So yeah, but I don’t think I’ll be finishing it any time soon. I may upload it to github if you need it though.
