I built a zero-browser

pure-JS typesetting engine for bit-perfect PDFs. This layout engine can solve the hardest layout problems imaginable. Its output is DTP grade and deterministic. It's faster than engines written in C++ because it's not traditional. Backed by game engine tech, it has a microkernel and runs a spatial-temporal simulation instead of a giant complex pagination loop. Standard markup like Fountain doesn't work for me because I write in mixed languages, so I use Markdown with a custom syntax I invented to resemble standard screenplay structures.
