Fountain integration #1
Description
Activity
That does sound cool
It definitely is outside the scope of this project however
You could implement this as a separate package that uses components from this package
From their github I see the fountain parser is written in objective-c so you could bring it in using wasm
Sounds like an interesting endeavor but I don't really have the time for it at the moment
Reacted by MartíCompiling that code to wasm seems a pain in the ass because it uses
NSStringandNSRegularExpression.It seems the most effective way may be rewritting the parser in Rust and then compiling it to WASM, and then creating a fountain typst package that uses the wasm as a plugin for the parsing and your package for the rendering. However your Typst code does not seem to contain all the Fountain specs either.
Anyways, I'll attempt it one of these days.
You know what would be nice? A function (inside the package) that transforms Fountain markup language to your Typst screenplay language. See Better Fountain or AfterWrite for inspiration.
In a sense a fountain renderer using typst would be really nice.
