What's "custom layout tables"? Anyway, I now only play https://typst.app card, because I don't use LO Writer anymore, only LO Calc for some stuff. Typst has a ton of scripting capability and granular customization, so it will probably beat your "custom layout tables" by a ~~mile~~ kilometer!

Typst is the future for document creation. Mark my words.

You based chad. Typst is absolutely awesome. It made me ditch Libreoffice and LaTeX at the same time. Haven't looked back since then.

Glad you've made the switch! If you want, you can hop into the discord server.

[-] PropaGandalf@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I'm sorry but discord is a nogo for me. I'm already in the matrix room so feel free to join, we could use some more discussion ;)

[-] Andrew15_5@mander.xyz 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Matrix room? Where? There is no official Matrix space.

I agree, I hate discord, but that's where everybody is messaging, including authors. BTW, we had a "community call" a few days ago in the discord. It's a monthly thing.

[-] PropaGandalf@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

No it is not official unfortunately. Just search for it. Maybe you could advertise the matrix room a bit :)

Do you know of any Google xcel alternatives? Something that still allows public viewing, and collaborative editing?

[-] Hexarei@programming.dev 1 points 2 years ago

I don't know of any public ones, but you can always host your own copy of Collabora with an instance of Next cloud.

[-] Andrew15_5@mander.xyz 1 points 2 years ago

No, but you can allow read only access to your document on typst.app and you can collaborate with it too.

  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility.
