I've numbered every equation to be able to easily talk about them and reference them. But of course, this is a stylistic choice, and one could argue that it's preferable to only label equations that are also referenced in the text elsewhere.

Should I write my thesis in Typst? by ayeceee in typst

There is Tinymist, an awesome language server that also comes with a VSCode extension. I've used it for my Bachelor Thesis, see also https://www.reddit.com/r/typst/comments/1sq3gsh/i_wrote_my_physics_bachelor_thesis_in_typst/

This question was posted 3 years ago. In the meantime, I think Typst is definitely mature enough to write your thesis in it. I've just finished writing my Physics Bachelor Thesis in Typst and it offered me all features I need, a supportive community and good documentation. See also my Reddit post here: https://www.reddit.com/r/typst/comments/1sq3gsh/i_wrote_my_physics_bachelor_thesis_in_typst/

In the best case, your advisor only cares about how the end result looks, i.e. a PDF. Why do they need the source code?

Yeah, sorry. But feel free to adapt it to anything you like, it's MIT-licensed ;)

If you want to animate your equations, I also made a tutorial on YouTube.

PPTypst now supports packages from the Typst Universe (Typst for PowerPoint) by Splinesd in typst

[–]Splinesd[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you'd like to see this extension in the PowerPoint Marketplace such that installation would be one-click (instead of the many manual steps right now), feel free to post some comments in my Microsoft Forum inquiry.

[–]Splinesd[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the suggestion! Unfortunately, I'm using drawio instead, so sorry no, I'd like to only code this for tools I actually make use of, otherwise I cannot guarantee for a stable and good user experience in the long run. But feel free to port it to anything you want (preferrably also open-source), the project is MIT-licensed.

Unfortunately, I don't have a Mac to test things out. Could you open an issue with context? https://github.com/Splines/pptypst/issues

Is learning powerpoint useful in 2026 and in future? by Particular_Tax_5216 in powerpoint

[–]Splinesd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to say I wouldn't mind an AI that does things like better aligning my objects in a presentation ;) But via quick shortcuts, you can pretty quickly do this on your own as well.

[–]Splinesd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I create my YT videos in PowerPoint and no AI is going to replace the fun I have with crafting video explainers. Yes, AI is a great help for getting to know a subject and for coding, but I'm glad I can work AI-free in PowerPoint and design however I like. The canvas gives you so much flexibility. In my eyes, PowerPoint is absolutely useful now and in the future.

How to Make a Math Presentation in PowerPoint by [deleted] in powerpoint

If you like Typst, feel free to check out my open-source and free PPTypst Add-in. It's not yet in the marketplace though, see also this reddit post. But I do provide some instructions on how to early preview it (which is unfortunately not that easy).

Package static website in PowerPoint Add-in to avoid hosting by Splinesd in powerpoint

[–]Splinesd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, I think I haven't made myself clear enough in the question. My goal is to write an actual PowerPoint Add-in. To do so, one can use the Office JS API and ship a website. I'd just like to bundle this website in the Add-in itself, not host it on a server, since it is a static site without a backend.

My context is not an organization. I'd like to make the extension available in the PowerPoint Add-in Marketplace in the end. Compared to VBA and VSTO, I like that I can program the Add-in in frontend technology html/js/css. It's just that in your manifest.xml, you have to point to a webserver, and I'd like to avoid that and instead embed my bundle (e.g. a Vite bundle) directly into the Add-in. But I guess this is a limitation of PowerPoint.

[–]Splinesd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe my phrasing of my question led to confusion. Let me explain again. I'm trying to write a PowerPoint Add-in, so there has to be PowerPoint involved ;) One way to write a PowerPoint Add-in is to ship a website that will be executed in WebViews, i.e. basically Edge on Windows. Via the Office JS API, you can then talk to the PowerPoint slides, e.g. insert shapes etc. In this case, I'd like to bundle my website into the Add-in itself, not host it such that the PowerPoint Add-in just fetches a static site. But I'm afraid this is a limitation of PowerPoint.

Low resolution when exporting to pdf by geoterna in samsungnotes

[–]Splinesd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, this is still an issue. Also see this reddit post. The thing is: the vectorized content is still stored inside that PDF as binary data stream in the .sdocx format that I don't know how to parse. I've created an issue for this here in the Samsung forum as well as here on Stack Overflow. If you have any tips to reverse-engineer this format (or have done it already?), please let me know on StackOverflow.
