scholatex – A tag-based language for print-ready teaching worksheets, built on LuaLaTeX

scholatex is a small markup language for producing print-ready teaching materials (worksheets, exercise sheets, handouts, short assessments) without writing LaTeX. A single tag syntax covers text, tables, images, simple maths, framed boxes, lists and full-page named-area layouts. It compiles to LuaLaTeX, so the output has full LaTeX quality, while the syntax can be read and edited in minutes by someone who does not know LaTeX. It is a closed language: raw LaTeX in the document body is typeset literally rather than executed, which keeps worksheets consistent and safe to share.
