Typst (/taɪpst/[1]) is an open-source typesetting system written in Rust. It is officially developed by Typst GmbH[2], also promoting said software. Typst is a markup language, similar to Markdown, and is designed as an alternative to LaTeX, Microsoft Word, and Google Docs[3].

The language is intended to be easier, faster to use and learn than LaTeX while still offering similar capabilities[4][5][6][7]. The Typst compiler is incremental through constrained memoization[8]. It was first developed for Haug and Mädje's master thesis[9][10].

Typst can be extended by community-provided packages and templates to provide additional features. Typst Universe acts as a community-driven repository akin to CTAN. It can natively export documents in PDF, PNG and SVG formats. In version 0.12.0, support for PDF/A-2b compliance was added[11].

Creating a document in Typst typically requires a text editor, first creating and editing a file, then compiling it. Typst Gmbh also provides an official online editor[12]. Alternatively, Typst has also been integrated into softwares, notably Quarto (software)[13], and Pandoc[14].

Zerodha adopted Typst for generating transactions records, transitioning from LaTeX[15].
