Support for Typst syntax
#4069

There appear to be similarities between Typst and ASCIIMath, in that both aim to make math entry easier than LaTeX. There was a request for KaTeX to support ASCIIMath input back in 2018, and the developers indicated then that it would be unlikely: #1472 Those of us that use ASCIIMath make use of an ASCIIMath to LaTeX converter (this one is mentioned in that earlier thread: https://github.com/christianp/asciimath2tex). This is quite lean and doesn't slow things down significantly. Perhaps you could take a similar approach with Typst. That is, (get someone to?) write a converter? Regards |

Typst – a new markup-based typesetting system (and a LaTeX competitor) – offers an easy to learn math syntax. Having written some documents for university with it, I feel that this syntax is really intuitive (and especially more intuitive than LaTeX syntax). Here are some examples of how it looks like:
As an idea, maybe KaTeX could support Typst's syntax in the future. Things like
#letare probably not in the scope of KaTeX, but already being able to write{ x in RR | x "is natural" }without thousands of\and{(see LaTeX) would be really awesome.All reactions
