+ tutorial, or dive into the reference.

+
+# Overview
+Welcome to Typst's documentation! Typst is a new markup-based typesetting system
+for the sciences. It is designed to be an alternative both to advanced tools
+like LaTeX and simpler tools like Word and Google Docs. Our goal with Typst is
+to build a typesetting tool that is highly capable _and_ a pleasure to use.
+
+This documentation is split into two parts: A beginner-friendly tutorial that introduces Typst through a practical use case and a comprehensive reference that explains all of Typst's concepts and features.
+
+We also invite you to join the community we're building around Typst. Typst is still a very young project, so your feedback is more than valuable.
