• E-invoices with ZUGFeRD and Factur-X in Oicana

  ZUGFeRD and Factur-X are standards used in Germany and France that solve this by putting both readers in one file: a normal PDF users can look at, with the structured invoice data embedded as XML for automation. This post explains why you would want or need that and how Oicana produces such a file from a Typst template. - Source: dev.to / 10 days ago

• Show HN: Better PDF Presentations (+Typst)

  Like many of us here I prefer not use PowerPoint. Recently I've been making slides in Typst (https://typst.app) which is great, except there's no good way to actually present the resulting PDF, and no support for speaker notes, videos or GIFS. To fix this I built Presio: https://presio.xyz. Present any PDF in the browser as two synced windows, a controller (speaker notes, timer, media controls) and a viewer for... - Source: Hacker News / 13 days ago

• Accessibility law and your PDFs: creating PDF/UA with Oicana

  This post looks at what the European Accessibility Act and the US accessibility framework (ADA and Section 508) mean for businesses that produce PDFs, whether PDF/UA is actually required, and how Oicana exports PDF/UA-1 documents from Typst templates. - Source: dev.to / 24 days ago

• Typst 0.15.0

  > Is there anything similar to (or better than) overleaf for collaborating on typst docs? To be clear, overleaf isn’t all that great but I sometimes work with groups that are used to it. Yes, https://typst.app/ is the official Typst app (part of how they make money). > Have conferences that traditionally accepted latex source (and specified latex templates) started accepting typst as well? Very few by now. - Source: Hacker News / 23 days ago

• Tectonic: A modernized, complete, self-contained TeX/LaTeX engine

  Co-maintainer here. Tectonic is a cool project, but hasn't seen any significant changes in a few years---and likely won't anytime soon. It seems we maintainers don't have the time and motivation to put serious work into Tectonic. I haven't looked at the code in years (and thus may be wrong), but here's a quick overview: Tectonic's code consists of thin bindings to /harfbuzz/graphite/etc and a vendored XeTeX port,... - Source: Hacker News / 29 days ago

• Is there and easy way of porting a site from d7 to d9?

  I would be interested in some good migration tools, paid ones are also ok. I found a post about this on drupal.org, but it didn't seem like an easy process. It is a multilanguage site with many content types, and a totally custom theme. Source: over 3 years ago

• Is there any nice group, where I can ask questions, when I get stuck and recieve some guidance instead of crytics?

  You got already good advice, but wanted to point the guide of drupal.org where you can see some tools listed with instructions and channels https://www.drupal.org/community/contributor-guide/reference-information/talk/tools. Source: over 3 years ago

• MAMP issue after Pro trial ended

  There is a service call GitPod that provides a temporary container Drupal environment. If you are familiar with what is going on around the future of how Drupal modules will eventually be offered up, you will likely have seen the "Project Browser" module as a contrib demo of the approach. It is used for people to give feedback to the developers. So they set up the typical 'SimplyTestMe' but also a GitPod... Source: almost 4 years ago

• Best Modules for Product and Recipe?

  For reviews, it depends entirely on what you mean by "review". I believe core has a simple comment module, although it may have been deprecated for D9? There are likely many review-style modules on drupal.org that might work, or if you just want to link out to third-party reviews then it could just be a repeating-value link field on the Product content type.

• Leadership?

  They should also use standards tools like Github. The drupal.org platform was certainly impressive 10 years ago, today it's a pain to use it. They ducktape it with gitlab, but really it sucks to have to read documentation to simply do a pull request. Source: almost 4 years ago
