What is Typst?

Typst keeps widening past PDF — first accessibility, now HTML, MathML and multi-file output

Typst reached 0.15 in June, adding variable font support, MathML-backed HTML equation export, multiple bibliographies per document, simultaneous PDF standard targeting, and an experimental bundle export target that lets one project emit multiple files. The 0.14 line before it made accessible PDFs the default and covered the full PDF/A range. Patch releases since have been font and math regression fixes.

What is Document360?

Document360 ships collaborative editing and API v3 with OAuth 2.0 in back-to-back releases.

Document360 has shipped two major capability expansions in consecutive August releases: v12.8.2 introduced API v3 with OAuth 2.0 authentication and scoped API keys (the product's largest API overhaul to date), and v12.8.4 added real-time collaborative editing allowing multiple contributors to work on the same article simultaneously. The surrounding releases improved the AI assistant analytics layer (Eddy AI unanswered query tracking) and redesigned the navigation and publishing UX.

Typst keeps widening past PDF — first accessibility, now HTML, MathML and multi-file output

◆ Current state

Typst reached 0.15 in June, adding variable font support, MathML-backed HTML equation export, multiple bibliographies per document, simultaneous PDF standard targeting, and an experimental bundle export target that lets one project emit multiple files. The 0.14 line before it made accessible PDFs the default and covered the full PDF/A range. Patch releases since have been font and math regression fixes.

◆ Where it's heading

The through-line across both majors is output surface. Typst started as a typesetting system that produced a PDF; it now produces conformant, accessible, standard-tagged PDFs and is building a credible HTML path with real equation rendering and multi-page bundling. Each major has picked one output format and made it a first-class target rather than an export afterthought.

◆ Prediction

The bundle target is flagged experimental, so the next cycle most likely stabilises it and extends HTML export coverage rather than opening a third output format.

D7.5

Document360 ships collaborative editing and API v3 with OAuth 2.0 in back-to-back releases.

◆ Current state

Document360 has shipped two major capability expansions in consecutive August releases: v12.8.2 introduced API v3 with OAuth 2.0 authentication and scoped API keys (the product's largest API overhaul to date), and v12.8.4 added real-time collaborative editing allowing multiple contributors to work on the same article simultaneously. The surrounding releases improved the AI assistant analytics layer (Eddy AI unanswered query tracking) and redesigned the navigation and publishing UX.

◆ Where it's heading

Document360 is clearly targeting enterprise knowledge base teams: OAuth 2.0 on the API enables secure SSO-gated integrations, collaborative editing removes a key friction point for team-based documentation, and unanswered query analytics gives content managers data to prioritize gaps. The product is closing the gap to Confluence and Notion on collaboration and integration depth.

◆ Prediction

Expect role-based collaborative editing permissions (view-only, comment, edit) and API v3 expansion to cover content lifecycle endpoints — the OAuth infrastructure is the foundation for third-party workflow integrations.
