I respect #LaTeX, and I’m glad that it exists. But I also hate it. It is not nice to work with. And almost every self-respecting engineer I have ever worked with in Germany has humble-bragged about having published something in LaTeX (usually their CV).
So I have high hopes for #Quarkdown. It won’t replace LaTeX, but at least it’s an open alternative that will allow me to keep my own CV in plain text with good formatting.
