Experimental Bundle Export
With the new experimental bundle export target, a single Typst project can now output multiple files, such as a multi-page website. This feature is a step towards managing complex projects directly within Typst, without the need for additional tools.
Multiple Bibliographies Management
Typst 0.15.0 now allows a single document to contain multiple bibliographies. This feature is particularly useful for technical and academic papers that require separate references for different sections, improving document clarity and organization.
Multi-Standard PDF Support
This version introduces the ability to target multiple PDF standards simultaneously. Document creators can choose the standards that best meet their needs, whether for accessibility, compatibility, or compression.
