Just received a printed copy of a book on relativity produced in LaTeX using the LuaTeX engine and STIX2 text/math fonts. Looks lovely. Yay for LuaTeX!!
Whew! So much progress for today’s #screenshotsaturday !! My Magic girl dueling game is coming along great! I need to start adding transitions and other screens next! #pixelart #magicgirl #lua #love2d #aesprite #witches #retro #IndieDev

I wrote a blog post! The title is "Is C++ fast?", and in it we'll see what happens to simplifier.cpp as we gradually convert it from "modern" C++ code to "C with structs" to pure C99. zeuxcg.org/2019/01/17/is-c-f…

Can you run plain TeX on @overleaf Most definitely, should you want to... Here's a short help item with a brief video clip showing a plain TeX file being processed, in turn, by 4 engines: TeX, pdfTeX, XeTeX and LuaTeX. overleaf.com/learn/latex/Que…

ConTeXt has its own font loader and is unlikely to adopt HarfBuzz.

Replying to @DrAdel2
Still work in progress, but once ready (hopefully by TeX Live 2019) it should be as easy as selecting the font with fontspec and compiling the document with lualatex. Right now, you need to do a bit of manual set up to combine everything together.

This article is one of the best I've read lately on the design of the Lua language. ❤️ Covers everything from the implementation of tables to weak references to closures to coroutines to the *unparalleled* FFI (which inspired, among others, PyPy's FFI) bit.ly/2yHXQNM

Lo cual, realmente, sirve de poco. En pdfTeX y en LuaTeX podemos defiir valores de márgenes ópticos para caracteres y familias de fuentes concretas, para idiomas concretos y para contextos concretos. E incluso en ConTeXt se implementa la etiqueta OpenType opbd (optical bounds).
