Answer by yannisl for Why does foreign language text not hyphenate even when using Babel? Typst hyphenates it correctly

Just to expand on my comments and add some images. I did three tests:

1. Using Typst

2. Using LuaLaTeX with microtypeImage may be NSFW.

3. Using LuaLaTeX without microtype.Image may be NSFW.

As expected the best results were those using microtype. Of course a better test would have been using a narrow column, but I didn't know enough on the typst side to check it. Also using some difficult to hyphenate paragraphs, such as from the Frog King, would have been better, as well as to log all the parameters affecting hyphenation.

As an aside, here are also some comments on my experience with typst.

1. I installed it on Windows from the github repository without any problems (on Windows) and it took less than 2 minutes to have everything running (10/10).
2. I use sublime as an editor and although I had no package for highlighting typst code, it does produce clean and readable code (8/10).
3. Typst compiles extremely fast (10/10).
4. I also visited the discord server and was a very poor experience. I just don't really like visiting discord in general and getting hit with pop-ups to buy nitros. The community so far seems enthusiastic and supporting. There are a lot of requests for features, that are taken for granted in LaTeX. (6/10)
5. I also Looked at some of the packages and IMHO Typst soon will have the same problem like Javascript, with an ecosystem that leads to indecisiveness, confusion and duplication. (5/10)
6. Overall it took less than 15 minutes for me to be able to use typst and read a little bit of the documentation. I did not watch the video, as I prefer to read than watch videos, is much quicker. I would have preferred a pdf in the like of LaTeX doc/docstrip documents. They bring a uniformity IMHO which is better than online manuals. (8/10)
7. IMHO it will be dead easy for both LaTeX as well as Typst to develop packages to translate to and from each other, either by the communities or pandoc.
8. Both Typst and LaTex so far are a better alternative to Word.

In a general environment of erosion of educational standards exacerbated by a political leadership that indulges in empty rhetoric, is nice to see developments aiming at systems that can equip students and others to write better documents, rather than tweets.
