wonderous-book

A book template for fiction. The template contains a title page, a table of contents, and a chapter template.

Dynamic running headers contain the title of the chapter and the book.

Usage

You can use this template in the Typst web app by clicking "Start from template"
on the dashboard and searching for wonderous-book.

Alternatively, you can use the CLI to kick this project off using the command

typst init @preview/wonderous-book

Typst will create a new directory with all the files needed to get you started.

Configuration

This template exports the book function with the following named arguments:

• title: The book's title as content.
• author: Content or an array of content to specify the author.
• paper-size: Defaults to iso-b5. Specify a paper size
  string to
  change the page format.
• dedication: Who or what this book is dedicated to as content or none. Will
  appear on its own page.
• publishing-info: Details for the front matter of this book as content or
  none.

The function also accepts a single, positional argument for the body of the
book.

The template will initialize your package with a sample call to the book
function in a show rule. If you, however, want to change an existing project to
use this template, you can add a show rule like this at the top of your file:

#import "@preview/wonderous-book:0.1.2": book

#show: book.with(
  title: [Liam's Playlist],
  author: "Janet Doe",
  dedication: [for Rachel],
  publishing-info: [
    UK Publishing, Inc. \
