Why this rather than LyX, Texmacs, Jupyter Notebook, LaTeX (and a suitable editor), or Typst (and a suitable editor)?

If you asking this, you are the wrong audience. All academic journals accept submissions in Microsoft Word, this is a similar tool targeted at the WYSIWYG crowd.

  • you both are missing the main point here, Forscape is not for writing documents, but for writing executable code.

    • TeXmacs can execute code too. Honestly, if it had 1/10 the community of Emacs, I would be using it for everything from running my window manager to driving my statistical simulations. It's already what Stallman keeps asking Emacs to become.
