Typst Editor is a local, offline editor for writing documents in Typst, a modern typesetting system used for academic papers, physics notes, and mathematics. It runs entirely on your own machine and gives you a two-panel layout: a code editor on the left and a live PDF preview on the right that updates as you type. Typst is an alternative to LaTeX that uses a cleaner syntax. This editor is designed to reduce the memorization burden that comes with LaTeX and Typst: it includes menus and toolbars for inserting equations, figures, tables, theorems, citations, and symbols without typing them from scratch. There is a math and physics symbol picker, a special Physics and Cosmology menu with pre-built compile-checked equations such as the Dirac equation, Einstein field equations, and Feynman diagrams, and a visual tool for drawing commutative diagrams that exports to editable code. One distinctive feature is code execution inside the document. You can write a Python, Julia, or Wolfram expression in the editor, run it, and drop the result directly into the document as a typeset equation or figure. You can also highlight an expression and simplify, differentiate, or integrate it using SymPy. There is also a 3D plot studio that lets you rotate a surface to the angle you want and insert that exact view as a figure. The editor includes citation management via DOI or arXiv ID, a reference and label manager, Git support for committing and pushing to GitHub, and export to PDF, HTML, Google Drive, or WebDAV. A desktop app is available as a prebuilt installer for macOS and other platforms. To run it locally from source, you need Node.js 18 or newer, the Typst CLI on your path, and optionally Python 3 with NumPy, Matplotlib, and SymPy if you want the code execution features.
