Typst
Typst is a writing system for making formatted documents such as papers, reports and books, using plain text commands instead of a visual editor. It is aimed at people who write technical documents and want something easier to learn than LaTeX.
How hard it is to start using it. Easy: install it like a normal app, or use it in your browser. Advanced: you run it on your own server, use the command line, or it is a tool for developers.
