alt Hacker NewsThis is awesome! I’ve been excited about the new bundle feature for months.
I use typst to format sheet music. Given a folder of PDFs, I currently have a script that generates a booklet of music for each person in the ensemble. Hopefully now I can just run a single typst file which outputs multiple PDFs.
Also using it to generate printable programs for concerts: https://concert-programs.projects.jaygoel.com/

Cool project. I made something similar to programmatically generate my CV, but using LaTeX with a LuaLaTeX backend. It works, but it is really slow and has a lot of dependencies.
I’m seriously considering rewriting it in Typst at some point. It probably would not be that hard, and I’d likely get much faster builds with far fewer dependencies.
Curious as to why typst over something like Lilypond, which is built around music
