## What it is
A deprecated language server for the Typst typesetting language, written in Rust, with a companion VS Code extension. It provides syntax highlighting, error reporting, code completion, signature help, and PDF compilation on save.

## Use cases
- get Typst language support in VS Code
- autocomplete and signature help for Typst markup
- compile Typst documents to PDF on save
- see Typst syntax errors inline in the editor
- add Typst support to any LSP-capable editor

## When to choose
- you are locked into an older toolchain or editor setup that already uses typst-lsp
- you want to study or fork an early Typst language server implementation

## When to avoid
- starting a new Typst editing setup - use tinymist instead
- you need maintained features, bug fixes, or an improved preview
- you need formatting support beyond the experimental typstfmt integration

## Facets
- artifact type: plugin
- maturity: abandoned
- function: editor, developer-tools, documentation, pdf
- domain: developer-tools, text-editors, documentation, parsers
- platform: cross-platform, editor-plugin, rust
