This is an introduction together with a survey on recent progress in transcendence problems for function fields in positive characteristic. It includes results related to the Carlitz exponential function, Drinfeld modules, \(t\)-modules and gamma functions. This provides also a valuable update to \textit{Jing Yu}'s previous survey on this topic [The arithmetic of function fields, Ohio State Univ. Math. Res. Inst. Publ. 2, 253-264 (1992; Zbl 0792.11015)] as well as a counterpart to \textit{D. S. Thakur}'s contribution in these proceedings dealing with the progress arising from automata techniques [Automata and transcendence, Contemp. Math. 210, 387-399 (1998)]. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0878.00049].
