Oh man, good on you identifying a product that needs to exist. I've used a few TikZ editors (both online and desktop) and none of them are just amazing.
But, I've taken my papers to Typst. Could you have the agent do the same thing for Cetz, the TikZ equivalent for Typst?
- DominikPeters 3mo agoI don't use Typst myself and am not familiar with Cetz. From the docs it looks like it's in early stages of development, so it doesn't feel like the right time to do this to me (or at least should be a separate, perhaps forked, app). But certainly it would make sense to develop bidirectional converters that could in particular be used at file open and file save in this app.
- wjholden 3mo agoA converter would be fantastic, too. I experimented with having a few LLMs try to translate TikZ to Cetz and none of them were great. The best thing I have found so far is tylax (https://github.com/scipenai/tylax https://github.com/scipenai/tylax), which I think is a parser with rules, not a statistical model.
- tombert 3mo agoTangential, but how has the publishing process been for Typst? I'm looking to write a paper on a recent project, but most of the places I've seen to submit has asked for TeX. I greatly prefer Typst because of the ridiculously fast compilation times but I haven't used it for anything outside of school assignments do to that restriction.
