Depending on your use case, Autosubst 2 might be better to use than Autosubst 1. We are using it in the Coq Library of Undecidability to formalise first-order logic, second-order logic, STLC, and System F
Does this mean that, eg, the FOL syntax file is somehow auto-generated? Or where/how are you using Autosubst 2 in the Library of Undecidability?
Autosubst 2 is written in Haskell and generates Coq code in the end that needs to be bundled, but I guess one can autogenerate it every time in CI... (so I don't know if that particular file is autogenerated)

The code in Ana's link looks hand-written, but the maths and notations are in autosubst's style

Exactly, the FOL syntax is Autosubst inspired and the System F syntax is really Autosubst generated. Another example of Autosubst generated code in the undecidability library is the syntax used for higher order unification.
Cool, thanks everyone
