Is there any simple way of creating a three-line table like Latex?

In Latex, a three-line table can be created by \toprule, \midrule and \bottomrule. Is there any similar solution in Typst?

Sure. If you look at the documentation of the booktab package for LaTeX, you will find these two lengths:

\heavyrulewidth=.08em
\lightrulewidth=.05em

So we can use them to mimic the booktab look, like this:

#import "@preview/metalogo:1.0.2": TeX, LaTeX

#set table(stroke: none)

#let toprule = table.hline(stroke: 0.08em)
#let bottomrule = toprule
#let midrule = table.hline(stroke: 0.05em)

#table(
  columns: 2,
  toprule,
  table.header(
    [Name],
    [Made public]
  ),
  midrule,
  [Typst], [2023],
  LaTeX, [1984],
  TeX, [1978],
  bottomrule
)
