Installation and Configuration

Complete Integration

To fully utilize Typ2Anki, ensure you follow the installation instructions for the Python package available at https://github.com/sgomezsal/typ2anki.

Installing the Typst Package

  1. Add the Typ2Anki package to your Typst document:

    #import "@preview/typ2anki:0.1.0"

  2. Place your custom configuration file (ankiconf.typ) in the project directory for consistent flashcard rendering.

    // Custom imports for flashcards
#import "@preview/pkgs"

#let conf(
  doc,
) = {
  // Custom configurations
  doc
}

Usage

Examples

For detailed examples, visit the examples folder in the original repository.

Important Note

For full functionality, this Typst package requires the complementary Python package. Installation and usage instructions can be found at https://github.com/sgomezsal/typ2anki.

Basic Workflow

  1. Create a Typst file with flashcards:

    #card(
  id: "001",
  target-deck: "Typst",
  q: "What is Typst?",
  a: "A modern typesetting system."
)

  2. Create your ankiconf.typ file with basic configurations:

    // Custom imports for flashcards
#import "@preview/pkgs"

#let conf(
  doc,
) = {
  // Custom configurations
  doc
}

  3. Compile your Typst document using Typst’s built-in commands to render the flashcards.

Customizing Cards

To modify card appearance, you can define custom card logic:

#let custom-card(
  id: "",
  Q: "",
  A: "",
  ..args
) = {
  card(
    id: id,
    Q: Q,
    A: A,
    container: true,
    show-labels: true
  )
}

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

  • Typst file compilation errors:
    • Check for syntax issues in your Typst file.
    • Ensure your ankiconf.typ contains the necessary imports and configurations.

Roadmap

  1. Support for Advanced Flashcard Formats: Add enhanced support for multi-part and hierarchical flashcards.
  2. Efficiency Improvements: Optimize rendering for large Typst projects with numerous flashcards.
  3. Integration Enhancements: Explore integration with additional Typst features for more dynamic output.

Future Plans

  • Expand compatibility to support more flashcard types.
  • Introduce configuration options for easier customization of flashcard styles.
