Ask HN: LaTeX is great. Has anyone tried to build something better?
There is https://patoline.github.io/ but it's been in alpha / active development for years now.
I agree that TeX's errors is one of the worst things about it. Strongly suggest you track your changes in git, I found it was often easier to go back to some version that compiled and re-add the changes, rather than try and track down the missing bracket or extra backslash that broke it.

LibreOffice Writer crashes when there's too many images. Is there any way around?
But try to consider "dirtying your hands with code", maybe LaTeX is not the appropriate tool, but something newer like SILE, Patoline or similar technology may be good for you. Yes, you already said you want something drag and drop, but this other approach.
