Support for custom types is not there.

I was a big fan of Nushell for some time but has the same problems as unix shells. I have this CLI tool that manages a lot of things for me (a big one is downloading and cataloging arxiv papers, it downloads them and tags them with metadata

Something like that yes. The endless parsing and reparsing that you need to do in the unix shells is such a pain.

Dude the writing is on the wall, git had a good run but it's time for something else. Lore is also solid.

It is not a coincidence that the author's nickname, Boz, is so close to Bozo the Clown, only a clown could write this.

Typst is the most important open source project of the last 5 years. I predict a future where markdown and latex are largely replaced by typst. And I couldn't be more excited. It is such a stepup from markdown and latex. Try it today i
