CW: mentions the pandemic
@borisveytsman extended @docum3nt's bookshelf class for multilingual support and is now presenting the results and feature ideas. #TUG2024
It's a pandemic project which allows you to create a colorful virtual bookshelf out of a #BibTeX database to be used with #biblatex The intention was to be able to use it as background for video calls, but you can also just use it to finally have a shelf for your ebooks. #TeXLaTeX
Bookshelf on CTAN:

Last talk of the session is Joseph Wright speaking about the concept of templates in the #TeXLaTeX kernel.
The concept of providing common interfaces for Layout adjustments exists for a long time within the #TeX world but is now a thing which is pushed by the current development status, as it simplifies preserving the tagging while allowing more flexibility for the layout.
This is using the joy of #expl3 to some higher level commands towards the users.
