# Overview
|
|
Welcome to Typst's documentation! Typst is a new markup-based typesetting system
|
|
for the sciences. It is designed to be an alternative both to advanced tools
|
|
like LaTeX and simpler tools like Word and Google Docs. Our goal with Typst is
|
|
to build a typesetting tool that is highly capable _and_ a pleasure to use.
|
|
|
|
This documentation is split into two parts: A beginner-friendly tutorial that
|
|
introduces Typst through a practical use case and a comprehensive reference that
|
|
explains all of Typst's concepts and features.
|
|
|
|
We also invite you to join the community we're building around Typst. Typst is
|
|
still a very young project, so your feedback is more than valuable.
