Hi folks, is it possible to use a template (e. g. for screenplays) from LaTeX in ConTeXt or can I as a "normal user" adapt a template for ConTeXt? Greetings Thomas

What do you mean with a template? LaTeX document classes are completely unrelated and hardly convertible to ConTeXt. ConTeXt makes it relatively easy to create your own layout, that why there are nearly no ready-made ones. I’m not aware of anything special for screenplays. I’d look into “descriptions”. Hraban
Thank you Hraban! Am 14.05.25 um 12:12 schrieb Henning Hraban Ramm:

This is absolutely helpful.

No, it’s not possible to use LaTeX templates for in ConTeXt. Regarding adapting a template: if you mean by this providing a preset of certain settings to make them reusable, then yes, that’s certainly possible. Look into environments: https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/environment
