You guys should also check out Typst https://typst.app/. It is a lot easier than LaTeX even though not as powerful. It has meaningful error messages making the debugging a lot more user friendly.
Under every single LaTeX themed post there is someone suggesting typst. Why use something open, if you can use something proprietary? /s
The Typst compiler is available under the Apache License 2.0.
The web app at https://typst.app is proprietary but also completely optional. You can use Typst with only a text editor supporting the LSP (VSCodium, Kate, Atom, ...), typst-lsp (Apache-2.0 OR MIT) and the Typst compiler.
