• LaTeX and AsciiDoc

  I'm allergic to LaTeX ;-), but initially used SILE, which is a modern reimagining of TeX/LaTeX. It reads Markdown natively, so I could push the content in directly and style it for the printed page. However, SILE is still very early in development, and I had some major problems with baseline alignment. It turned out to be far less of a pain to do it in InDesign, even with the need to write conversion scripts. Source: about 1 year ago

• Typst, a modern LaTeX alternative written in Rust, is now open source

  What are your thoughts on SILE (https://sile-typesetter.org/)? I think it’s the tool roughly in this space, and “write djot -> SILE convertor” is on my hobby todo list. I am 95% sure in the djot part here, but I am fairly naive when it comes to typography, and can’t really estimate the SILE part. Source: about 1 year ago

• TeXmacs “The Jolly Writer” book now available as pdf download

  TeX/LaTeX is so addictive to use ... It's such a quirky and messy ecosystem. So organically grown over decades. Doing any complex layout is a struggle of trial and error and searching for advise, there's so many ways to do the same thing, you end up combining two dozens sometimes subtly incompatible packages, you end up gardening your own templates over time with meticulously embedded commentary to keep the... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Ask HN: LaTeX is great. Has anyone tried to build something better?

  I actually have really enjoyed SiLE[0] as a replacement. The only caveat being that it has no where near the ecosystem that LaTeX has built up over the years. I do think that it is better under the hood than LaTeX though and much easier to customize. [0]: https://sile-typesetter.org/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

  Simon Cozens spent some time writing a new typesetter called SILE:

Apache Tomcat mentions (14)

• Spring Boot Monitoring with Open-Source Tools

  Manual instrumentation allows you to define your Spans within the code itself rather than relying on automatic instrumentation finding the entry point for a trace. Manual instrumentation is especially helpful for applications that don’t use an application server such as Tomcat, JBoss, or Jetty. - Source: dev.to / 7 months ago

• Issue with chatgpy

  99% is a huge exaggeration. Two essential deployment tools off the top of my head: Https://tomcat.apache.org/ Https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/AS71/Developer%20Guide.html. Source: about 1 year ago

• 7 years with Vaadin in production. Do we still enjoy it?

  Do we still enjoy it? We are running many Vaadin apps in production since that first one. If there are not any specific requirements we use a “modular monolith” concept, which fits our stack best. We pack applications as WAR and deploy them under Apache Tomcat. And yes, we enjoy the development process. It’s very straightforward and Vaadin and SpringBoot fit together well. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• TIBCO Jaspersoft Studio tutorial: Creating templates and integration with JasperReports Server

  JasperReports Server Community requires a Java application server and a database to create a repository in order to work properly. After downloading JRS, the installation process can install Tomcat server and PostgreSQL database automatically for us and the services will run depending on the Jasper server. It's also possible to connect JRS to services already installed on the server. Moreover, while the free... - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• I wish to learn web development with java and while configuring apache tomcat 10.0.26 into Eclipse, I encountered this problem. Can anyone help me? Thank you.

  Don't use an installed copy of Tomcat. The layout can be different than expected and permission problems can appear at the worst time. For one, it needs to be able to write to that conf directory. Download a non-platform-specific "core" zip file from tomcat.apache.org instead. Source: over 1 year ago
