Late May moved Lynx beyond an editor state held only on screen. The repository added a versioned .lynx format, autosave-oriented local file handling, import and export, LaTeX serialization, templates, and native PDF generation.
These pieces are linked by the semantic model. The same structured document that drives editor styling can become a complete LaTeX document or a locally rendered PDF. The app does not need to send the document to a custom rendering service for those outputs.
The file format stores both editor text and structured state. That supports reliable reopening and explicit synchronization checks, but it also makes consistency a first-class concern. PDF export refuses to proceed when the two representations diverge, while LaTeX output can expose a warning. The prototype favors visible failure over silently producing authoritative-looking output from uncertain structure.
