From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

You can use their online web-editor (similar to OverLeaf for LaTeX) or download the open-source engine and run it locally (there are extensions available for many text editors).
Compared to LaTeX I find it much more comfortable to work with. It comes with sane, modern defaults and doesn't need any plugins just to generate a (localized) bibliography or include links.
Since Typst is very young compared to LaTeX I'm sure that there are numerous docs / workflows that can't be reproduced at the moment but if you don't need some special feature I'd recommend giving it a shot.
