About
Typesetter is a minimalist editor for creating beautiful documents with the Typst markup language.
- Adaptive, user-friendly interface: Focus on writing. Great for papers, reports, slides, books, and any structured writing.
- Powered by Typst: A modern markup-based typesetting language, combining the simplicity of Markdown with the power of LaTeX.
- Fully local: Your files stay on your machine. No cloud lock-in.
- Package management: Install, remove, and automatically fetch Typst packages from within the app.
- Templates: Create new documents from built‑in or user templates.
- Automatic preview: See your rendered document update as you write.
- Click-to-jump: Click on a part of the preview to jump to the corresponding position in the source file.
- Magnifier tool: Click and hold on the preview to inspect fine details.
- Accessibility checking: Simulate different forms of color blindness to check how your document looks to all readers.
- Centered scrolling: Keeps your writing visually anchored as you type.
- Syntax highlighting: Makes your documents easier to edit and read.
- Grammar suggestions: Automatically checks your writing for grammatical errors (currently English only).
