= Introduction
Our concept suggests three
ways that A-Mail can be best
utilized.
- First is to reduce the
probability of the failure of
a space mission. This problem
is known as the Mars problem
and suggests problems with
human communication.

) Pick a template, create your own, or just start writing. All the formatting happens automatically.
Export as a PDF, image, or a website (in preview), without touching your markup.
Different documents have different needs. Typst supports common types of content out of the box while giving you the power to build the rest.
Visualizations. No matter whether a Gantt chart or an arrow diagram: Visualizations always stay up-to-date with your data.
Mathematics. With beautiful equations as a first-class citizen, Typst is ready for research.
Plots and charts. Box plots, contours, paths, or just a bar chart: Pick a package and draw just the right plot for your data.
Tables. Write tables by hand or plug in CSVs or JSON. Style them all at once or tweak them individually.
Code. Syntax highlighting, line numbers, themes, and callouts. Present code snippets just like in your IDE.
Bibliographies. Automatically format citations and references and sync with Zotero or Mendeley.
Slides. Take your content straight from the page to a slideshow. You can even present right from the app.
Anything else. Your own building blocks: With the integrated scripting features, the only limit is your imagination.
The tutorial sets you up to start writing in less than 30 minutes. And you can learn about advanced topics later in the reference.
“What’s that?”
In the pit, Dr. Miranda Bailey—now Chief of Surgery—watched Meredith’s face. Bailey remembered everything. She remembered Meredith standing over the patient with the bazooka shell in his chest, her hand steady as a statue. She remembered the fear that Meredith tried to hide behind a curtain of blonde hair.
As she examined the mangled remains of his hand, Meredith felt the ghost of a soldier she never knew standing behind her. Dylan Young. She’d googled him once, years ago. Found a photo. He had kind eyes. Eyes that had seen too many wires and too few tomorrows.
“Was,” Leo said, his voice dry. “Until my disposal robot glitched. Had to go manual. Manual lost.”
The compiler is a command line tool that turns Typst markup into PDFs, images, and web pages. It forms the basis of the Typst ecosystem, including our collaborative web app.
