Claude and Typst – Examples for AI-Assisted Document Generation [pdf] (richardcocks.github.io)
1 point by eterm 7 months ago | hide | past | favorite | 1 comment


I've been finding the reams of markdown that claude generates too difficult to read comfortably, so I switched to asking it to generate PDFs with typst instead.

Without even writing a "skill", it nails the execution, and then generated this booklet of examples with only a minimal prompt. ( It made up all the examples itself. )

Part of what makes Typst so nice to work with is the speed, the almost instant compilation means you can very quickly iterate.
