Version 0.1.0 (April 04, 2023)

• Breaking changes:

  • When using the CLI, you now have to use subcommands:
    • typst compile file.typ or typst c file.typ to create a PDF
    • typst watch file.typ or typst w file.typ to compile and watch
    • typst fonts to list all fonts
  • Manual counters now start at zero. Read the "How to step" section in the counter documentation for more details
  • The bibliography styles "author-date" and "author-title" were renamed to "chicago-author-date" and "chicago-author-title"

• Figure improvements

  • Figures now automatically detect their content and adapt their behaviour. Figures containing tables, for instance, are automatically prefixed with "Table X" and have a separate counter
  • The figure's supplement (e.g. "Figure" or "Table") can now be customized
  • In addition, figures can now be completely customized because the show rule gives access to the automatically resolved kind, supplement, and counter

• Bibliography improvements

  • The bibliography function now also accepts multiple bibliography paths (as an array)
  • Parsing of BibLaTeX files is now more permissive (accepts non-numeric edition, pages, volumes, dates, and Jabref-style comments; fixed abbreviation parsing)
  • Labels and references can now include : and . except at the end
  • Fixed APA bibliography ordering

• Drawing additions

  • Added polygon function for drawing polygons
  • Added support for clipping in boxes and blocks

• Command line interface

  • Now returns with non-zero status code if there is an error
  • Now watches the root directory instead of the current one
  • Now puts the PDF file next to input file by default
  • Now accepts more kinds of input files (e.g. /dev/stdin)
  • Added --open flag to directly open the PDF

• Miscellaneous improvements

  • Added yaml function to load data from YAML files
  • Added basic i18n for a few more languages (IT, RU, ZH, FR, PT)
  • Added numbering support for Hebrew
  • Added support for integers with base 2, 8, and 16
  • Added symbols for double bracket and laplace operator
  • The link function now accepts labels
  • The link syntax now allows more characters
  • Improved justification of Japanese and Chinese text
  • Calculation functions behave more consistently w.r.t to non-real results
  • Replaced deprecated angle brackets
  • Reduced maximum function call depth from 256 to 64
  • Fixed first-line-indent not being applied when a paragraph starts with styled text
  • Fixed extraneous spacing in unary operators in equations
  • Fixed block spacing, e.g. in {block(above: 1cm, below: 1cm, ..)}
  • Fixed styling of text operators in math
  • Fixed invalid parsing of language tag in raw block with a single backtick
  • Fixed bugs with displaying counters and state
  • Fixed crash related to page counter
  • Fixed crash when symbol function was called without arguments
  • Fixed crash in bibliography generation
  • Fixed access to label of certain content elements
  • Fixed line number in error message for CSV parsing
  • Fixed invalid autocompletion after certain markup elements

• Versioning changes: Starting with this release, Typst follows semver. The language and compiler will be version together for now. As a result, all crates and the language share the same version and a breaking change to either the language or any library requires a version bump. Once the language stabilizes (unclear when), the compiler and language version might start to diverge as the compiler APIs will probably remain unstable.
