unfortunately the article leaves out the corresponding LaTeX example.
to me the given typst example doesn't look like it would be much easier than a comparable example in LaTeX.
taking a look here: https://typst.app/docs/guides/guide-for-latex-users/ https://typst.app/docs/guides/guide-for-latex-users/ i don't see much that stands out as a real improvement. most are just differences. if you prefer one over the other, great. for me, i don't really care. either one looks fine to me. but if it comes down to it, LaTeX syntax at the text level looks less complex.
on the other hand, defining your own commands or environments in LaTeX is not as easy, and actual code syntax is far away from traditional programming language syntax.
so if you do a lot of coding in LaTeX, then maybe typst will be easier to use. but to maintain my CV i don't have to write any code.
