Tinymist provides a single integrated language service for Typst.
Multiple Actors – The main component, tinymist, starts as a thread or process, obeying the Language Server Protocol. tinymist will bootstrap multiple actors, each of which provides some typst feature.
Multi-level Analysis – The most critical features are lsp functions, built on the tinymist-query crate. To achieve low latency, functions are classified into different levels of analysis.
query_token_cache
–TokenRequest
– locks and accesses token cache.query_source
–SyntaxRequest
– locks and accesses a single source unit.query_world
–SemanticRequest
– locks and accesses multiple source units.query_state
–StatefulRequest
– acquires to accesses a specific version of compile results.
Optional Features – All rest features in tinymist are optional. The significant features are enabled by default, but you can disable them with feature flags. For example, tinymist
provides preview server features powered by typst-preview
.
Editor Frontends – Leveraging the interface of LSP, tinymist provides frontends to each editor, located in the editor folder.
- Cargo – Cargo is the Rust package manager.
- Yarn – Yarn is a package manager that doubles down as project manager.
