# tex2typst-rs

A Rust library that converts TeX code to Typst code.



    



    

# Aim of this project

There exist some other libraries that convert LaTeX (especially LaTeX math) to other languages. 

However, the result may not be visually pleasing or easy to read. 

This project aims to convert LaTeX to idiomatic Typst code, which can be very easily read and edited. 

For comparison, for this LaTeX input:

```latex

\overrightarrow{P M}=(3-x-y) \overrightarrow{P A}+x \overrightarrow{P B}+(y-2) \overrightarrow{P C}

```

[`mitex`](https://crates.io/crates/mitex) gives the output:

```typst

arrow(P  M )= \(3 - x - y \) arrow(P  A )+ x  arrow(P  B )+ \(y - 2 \) arrow(P  C )

```

`tex2typst-rs` gives the output:

```typst

arrow(P M) =(3 - x - y) arrow(P A) + x arrow(P B) +(y - 2) arrow(P C)

```

# Usage

See the [documentation](https://docs.rs/tex2typst-rs) for more details.

```Rust

use tex2typst_rs::tex2typst;

use tex2typst_rs::text_and_tex2typst;

fn main() {

    let tex = r"\widehat{f}(\xi)=\int_{-\infty}^{\infty} f(x) e^{-i 2 \pi \xi x} d x, \quad \forall \xi \in \mathbb{R}";

    println!("{}", tex2typst(tex).unwrap());

    

    let mixed = r"some text and some formula: \(\frac{1}{2}\)";

    println!("{}", text_and_tex2typst(mixed).unwrap());

}

```

Output:

```typst

hat(f)(xi) = int_(- infty)^infty f(x) e^(- i 2 pi xi x) d x, quad forall xi in RR

some text and some formula: $1/2$

```
