    I don't even consider that to rise to the level of "cross compiling".

    Getting started with emscripten to target WASM for C and C++ is rather a chore of dependency wrangling IME. Targeting WASM from Rust, OTOH, is trivial. Targeting windows from linux with Rust is also quite straightforward, as has been experimenting with targeting consoles or Android from Windows.

    Targeting a MIPS32 OpenDingux target from Windows was much more of a chore. The toolchain with libs, headers, etc. that I used is just a *.tar.bz2 that expects to be extracted to /opt/gcw0-toolchain of a linux distro specifically, and embedded absolute paths all over the place make changing that difficult. I do resort to WSL on Windows, basically only because of those embedded paths: https://github.com/MaulingMonkey/rust-opendingux-test

    Acquiring the appropriate libs and headers to link/compile against for cross compiling is always an adventure, but Rust isn't making things any worse IME.

    KeenWrite is my free, open-source, cross-platform desktop Markdown editor that can produce beautifully typeset PDFs. I started working on it years ago to help write a novel that has a complex timeline and I couldn't find a text editor that would allow me to integrate a character sheet with the story itself.

    Here's what I mean by using variables directly:

    CommonMark doesn't propose a standard for bibliographic references. Would anyone find the editor more appealing if it had cross-references and citations?

    My cross-platform desktop text editor, KeenWrite, allows users to define variables in an external YAML file. The editor calls out to Kroki[1] to convert text-based diagrams to SVG. The diagrams can reference variables and are rendered using EchoSVG[2].

    KeenWrite[3] can produce PDF documentation from Markdown documents that has PlantUML diagrams with elements stored in an external, machine-readable file. Here are screenshots showing variables on the left, diagram text in the middle, and a real-time render on the right:

    KeenWrite supports all diagrams offered by Kroki, which includes "diagram-plantuml".

    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.
