I maintained my CV in Latex for years (originally got started on this due to the fear of MS Word) and recently tried out Typst. I agree with you that it's quite simple to get started with. Also, I had to maintain a Ubuntu based Docker image with everything needed for the build.

Also if anyone is looking for a little help in getting started, LLMs are pretty decent at converting (and I forget which one I used).

My CV is still in LaTeX which gives me the opportunity to procrastinate updating it (rather than actually applying for jobs) because of all of the tweaking I do.

If nothing else, typist is going go give me more opportunities to procrastinate! Nice.
