# The physica package for Typst (v0.9.5)
[](https://github.com/Leedehai/typst-physics/actions/workflows/ci.yml)
[][latest-release]
Available in the collection of [Typst packages](https://typst.app/docs/packages/): `#import "@preview/physica:0.9.5": *`
> physica _noun_.
> * Latin, study of nature
This [Typst](https://typst.app) package provides handy typesetting utilities for
natural sciences, including:
* Braces,
* Vectors and vector fields,
* Matrices, including Jacobian and Hessian,
* Smartly render `..^T` as transpose and `..^+` as dagger (conjugate transpose),
* Dirac braket notations,
* Common math functions,
* Differentials and derivatives, including partial derivatives of mixed orders with automatic order summation,
* Familiar "h-bar", tensor abstract index notations, isotopes, Taylor series term,
* Signal sequences i.e. digital timing diagrams.
## A quick look
See the [manual](https://github.com/Leedehai/typst-physics/blob/v0.9.5/physica-manual.pdf) for more details and examples.

## Using physica in your Typst document
### With `typst` package management (recommended)
See https://github.com/typst/packages. If you are using the Typst's web app,
packages listed there are readily available; if you are using the Typst
compiler locally, it downloads packages on-demand and caches them on-disk, see
[here](https://github.com/typst/packages#downloads) for details.
```typst
// Style 1
#import "@preview/physica:0.9.5": *
$ curl (grad f), tensor(T, -mu, +nu), pdv(f,x,y,[1,2]) $
```
```typst
// Style 2
#import "@preview/physica:0.9.5": curl, grad, tensor, pdv
$ curl (grad f), tensor(T, -mu, +nu), pdv(f,x,y,[1,2]) $
```
```typst
// Style 3
#import "@preview/physica:0.9.5"
$ physica.curl (physica.grad f), physica.tensor(T, -mu, +nu), physica.pdv(f,x,y,[1,2]) $
```
### Without `typst` package management
Similar to examples above, but import with the undecorated file path like `"physica.typ"`.
## Typst version
The version requirement for the compiler is in [typst.toml](typst.toml)'s
`compiler` field. If you are using an unsupported Typst version, the compiler
will throw an error. You may want to update your compiler with `typst update`,
or choose an earlier version of the `physica` package.
Developed with compiler version:
```sh
$ typst --version
typst 0.13.0 (8dce676d)
```
## Manual
See the [manual](https://github.com/Leedehai/typst-physics/blob/v0.9.5/physica-manual.pdf) for a more comprehensive coverage, a PDF file
generated directly with the [Typst](https://typst.app) binary.
To regenerate the manual, use command
```sh
typst watch physica-manual.typ
```
## Contribution
* Bug fixes are welcome!
* New features: welcome as well. If it is small, feel free to create a pull
request. If it is large, the best first step is creating an issue and let us
explore the design together. Some features might warrant a package on its own.
* Testing: currently testing is done by closely inspecting the generated
[manual](https://github.com/Leedehai/typst-physics/blob/v0.9.5/physica-manual.pdf).
This does not scale well. I plan to add programmatic testing by comparing
rendered pictures with golden images.
