The new browser-based version of #pandoc is really neat! Not a complete replacement for the cli, but a good way to introduce pandoc to people who are less comfortable with terminal commands. pandoc.org/app/

I’ve been using Pandoc for years, it’s a huge time-saver for publishing documents from Markdown and an essential tool in my workflow.

This is precisely what the “presentation” and “lecturenotes” classes in the pandoc-lecturenotes filters are for: they allow you to show or hide certain elements only on slides or on lecture notes. ⇢

I am, luckily, at a career stage where I mostly only need two-page CVs and the list of publications of the last five years. After a long time, I needed a full CV and a complete list of publications.
My bibliography is up-to-date, but having switched to #Pandoc with #Typst as backend, I had litt…

It took me a long time, but #Typst output of pandoc-lecturenotes can now render most (useful) #Deckset and #Pandoc layout extensions on embedded slides!
Tomorrow, I *really* need to work again on …

But it would be nice to have not just a link in the lecture notes, but a preview. And you know what? It’s almost too easy to write a little #Pandoc Lua filter for it ;-)

(I intend to write a blog post about it next week or so.)

I’m happy to report that @…’s multibib Pandoc Lua filter works great for this purpose: you sort your references into different bib files according to your needs (books, journal articles, conference papers, etc.), indicate in the document where the sections are to appear, and use the nocite metadata field to fill them.
