Millions of dollars in time wasted making papers fit journal guidelines
KeenWrite Themes[1] are instructions that tell ConTeXt how to typeset XHTML documents (content) into PDF files (presentation). I made a tutorial that shows how my FOSS desktop text editor, KeenWrite[3], allows users to write in Markdown to typeset a document against a particular theme.
Before it can be used for scientific papers, it needs cross-references, which, unfortunately, aren't part of the CommonMark specification.
I posit that the vast majority of LaTeX users don't grok how to separate content from presentation. When I asked a question on TeX.SE about how to adjust the line spacing between enumerated items (spanning a couple dozen enumerated lists), the vast majority of people voted for the answer of using `\itemsep0em` to tweak each list ... individually.[4] The correct answer, IMO, is to fix the problem globally, and not waste time tweaking individual lists.

Lua: The Little Language That Could
The ConTeXt typesetting system tightly integrates Lua. One aspect of Lua that I dislike is its inability to easily write OOP-ish code. What's impressive about the language is that it can be extended to do so in astonishingly little code:
* https://github.com/kikito/middleclass
With OOP in place, I was able to typeset a hexagonal grid and a symbolic representation of a neural network on top, using a more OOP-like approach. The classes are straightforward.
A vertex defines a point in 2D space:
* https://github.com/DaveJarvis/keenwrite-themes/blob/main/bos...
An edge connects two vertices:
* https://github.com/DaveJarvis/keenwrite-themes/blob/main/bos...
A graph connects edges:
* https://github.com/DaveJarvis/keenwrite-themes/blob/main/bos...
A priority queue serves for ordering graph edges by weight of adjoining vertices:
* https://github.com/DaveJarvis/keenwrite-themes/blob/main/bos...
With these concepts in hand, we can typeset a grid and a "neural network" on top:
* https://github.com/DaveJarvis/keenwrite-themes/blob/main/bos...
Here's an example of the output for chapter 1:
* https://i.ibb.co/19DCDZy/ch-1.png
And chapter 14, where the "network" has grown in complexity:
* https://i.ibb.co/ncf16vg/ch-2.png
This is for my near future hard sci-fi book on AGI. I'm looking for alpha readers to give me feedback. See profile for contact details.

KeenWrite 3.2.0
KeenWrite uses themes to control every aspect of the presentation layer: leader dots, indentation levels, fonts, colours, hyperlinking, and so forth. This is accomplished by first converting R Markdown to XHTML then passing the XHTML to ConTeXt.
-
Pure Java Typesetting System
> like font face, font size, horizontal and vertical element positioning and line spacing, etc.
May I recommend ConTeXt?
For my purposes, KeenType was only meant to provide a real-time "rough draft" of equations rendered inside of KeenWrite[0], my FOSS Markdown editor. That is, I edit in Markdown, then KeenWrite converts the inline TeX-based equations for previewing. When I'm ready to create a "finished" product, KeenWrite exports the Markdown to XHTML then feeds the XHTML, along with a theme, to ConTeXt[1]. The various themes[2] are where font faces sizes, alignment, kerning, etc. are tweaked. In this way content remains completely separated from presentation.

Architecture diagrams should be code
KeenWrite[0], the FOSS Markdown text editor I’ve been working on, includes the ability to render plain text diagrams via Kroki[1]†. See the screenshots[2] for examples. Here’s a sample Markdown document that was typeset[3] using ConTeXt[4] (and an early version of the Solare[5] theme).
One reason I developed KeenWrite was to use variables inside of plain text diagrams. In the genealogy diagram, when any character name (that’s within the diagram) is updated, the diagram regenerates automatically. (The variables are defined in an external YAML file, allowing for integration with build pipelines.)
Version 3.x containerizes the typesetting system, which greatly simplifies the installation instructions that allow typesetting Markdown into PDF files. It also opens the door to moving Kroki into the container so that diagram descriptions aren’t pushed over the Internet to be rendered.
†Kroki, ergo KeenWrite, supports BlockDiag (BlockDiag, SeqDiag, ActDiag, NwDiag, PacketDiag, RackDiag), BPMN, Bytefield, C4 (with PlantUML), Ditaa, Erd, Excalidraw, GraphViz, Nomnoml, Pikchr, PlantUML, Structurizr, SvgBob, UMLet, Vega, Vega-Lite, and WaveDrom.
Note that Mermaid diagrams generate non-conforming SVG[6], so they don’t render outside of web browsers. There is work being done to address[7] this problem.

Is it possible to add LaTeX commands to a markdown file?
KeenWrite leverages KeenWrite Themes to change how documents are presented. The Tarmes theme is an example of a very basic theme, meant to act as a base for making new themes. Take a look at Tarmes, which is probably the closest answer to your question. Feel free to add issues against the issue tracker or add questions to the discussion area.

Converting my PhD thesis into HTML
> Nevertheless, I would prefer a Markdown-based system
My free, cross-platform desktop Markdown editor, KeenWrite[1], integrates with the ConTeXt typesetting software[2]. I'm working on a branch[3] to make integration containerized[3] because its installation is painful. KeenWrite limits math to plain TeX[4] so that the output can be rendered using any TeX-based typesetter (ConTeXt, LaTeX, MathJax, εχTEX, etc.).
Here's a sample document typeset using ConTeXt (skip to page 40 for the math):
https://pdfhost.io/v/4FeAGGasj_SepiSolar_Highlevel_Software_...
That document theme is called Solare[8].
> that can use CSS and MathML
Adding CSS mixes presentation logic with content, which is something KeenWrite strives to avoid. Instead, KeenWrite implements Pandoc's annotation syntax to keep presentation logic out of the content. I've written about this extensively in my Typesetting Markdown series[5].
You can produce some pretty amazing documents just with annotations, such as the following that I wrote in Markdown and typeset using ConTeXt:
https://impacts.to/downloads/lowres/impacts.pdf
> has a 100% bibtex clone for references.
Markdown fails at references. At some point, I'd like to implement cross-references in KeenWrite. Except there's at least six competing standards for the syntax, which I've also remarked upon[6], making the choice of syntax difficult[7].

Spin 2.0 – open-source tool for building and running WASM apps
Joel from our team worked on the initial prototype for WASI support in TeaVM (https://github.com/konsoletyper/teavm/pull/610), and we temporarily forked before the WASI support made it to the official repo.
Good reminder to deprecate that now!

Bring garbage collected programming languages efficiently to WebAssembly
A number of concerns with the viability of the current WASM GC are covered here (Google translation to English):
https://habr-com.translate.goog/ru/articles/757182/?_x_tr_sl...
and the original article:
https://habr.com/ru/articles/757182/
This is from the author of TeaVM, who has 10 years of experience getting Java and JVM code to run efficiently in the browser. https://teavm.org/
TeaVM's existing transpilation of Java to JavaScript performs well (using the browsers JS GC). It will be interesting to see if WASM GC matures to the point where it is even faster.

Embed your Doom in Java with GraalVM Wasm.
How does this compare to say the TeaVM (https://github.com/konsoletyper/teavm) which I know only has "experimental" WASM support at the moment?

For Java, no WASM file is requested. Maybe the Java code was transpiled to JavaScript, perhaps using TeaVM.

>> It's not like you can take a random JAR and convert it to WASM.
Maybe you can:
TeaVM is an ahead-of-time compiler for Java bytecode that emits JavaScript and WebAssembly that runs in a browser. Its close relative is the well-known GWT. The main difference is that TeaVM does not require source code, only compiled class files. Moreover, the source code is not required to be Java, so TeaVM successfully compiles Kotlin and Scala.

I have never had an opportunity to try out TeaVM, but it seems promising.

Using Java for the front-end of a web app in 2022
For a fast, lightweight, Java-based front-end, try TeaVM and its Flavour toolkit:
https://teavm.org/
It is easy to get started by using the maven archtetype, there's an tutorial in Java Magazine here:
https://blogs.oracle.com/javamagazine/post/java-in-the-brows...
With TeamVM and Flavour you get a full front-end SPA framework that lets you code business logic in Java, and pair that with HTML and CSS to make components.
To see what it can do, check out Wordii, a fast-paced 5-letter word game:
