I want to compile a docx file into a Typst file, I believe deep down docx is XML, and Typst is close to markdown with interesting functionalities, is that feasible? Note that Typst does have syntax to define functions and call them and I want to create special functions during the code gen step, is ANTLR the right tool for the job? Are there better tools? I want to have as few bugs as possible

      Oh, ok, antlr would be inappropriate then. I’d check whether pandoc already does that conversion.

        I just checked, it doesn’t convert to Typst’s , but I’m willing to do support the conversion to it if pandoc can work as a framework rather than a closed converter
