From the article: "Typst... can, for example, easily split large tables across page breaks, something that LaTeX struggles with even with specialized packages." That would be nice. I remember when I first started working with LaTeX that I was surprised that I needed to decide ahead of time whether a table would fit on one page or not. If Typst can make that decision on its own, that's a step forward. One thing I have not seen mentioned as yet: cross-references. In LaTeX, I can create cross references to anything: page number, table or figure number, even an item in a numbered list. Does Typst have that capability? I saw a package for cross-referencing numbered boxes (it's called statementsp), but it wasn't clear how you xref other things. (Not saying it's not there, it just doesn't jump out at me.) | ||

yes, cross-references are possible by adding an <anchor> and referencing it with @anchor. It works for headings, figures, equations, footnotes, and with a slightly different syntax also for page. [1] Numbered lists are currently not natively supported, only with the package itemize [2]. | ||
