The editor

Live preview

Type on the left and the PDF updates on the right in real time. Edist uses incremental compilation, so only what changed is re-rendered — the preview keeps pace as you write.

Syntax highlighting & completion

Full Typst syntax coloring, plus context-aware completion that appears when it’s useful and stays out of the way while you write prose.

Inline errors

Mistakes are flagged inline, exactly where they happen, with a clear message — so you catch problems before they reach the page.

Packages

Import any Typst package and Edist fetches it for you — no terminal, no manual installs.

#import "@preview/cetz:0.3.1"

Fonts

Edist uses any font installed on your Mac. Install a font, restart Edist, and it’s available to #set text(font: "…").
