synkit: a toolkit to create syntactic representations in Typst

synkit is a Typst package for drawing syntax trees from bracket notation. It supports a wide range of features, including triangles, arrows, movement traces, multidominance, semantic annotation, cross-tree equivalence lines, and formatting options for quick adjustments. Trees can be drawn in four directions (down, up, left, right), and multiple trees can be stacked with shared arrow connections. Besides trees, the package also offers functions for numbered examples and glosses. This document serves as the official documentation for synkit, providing examples and explanations for all available parameters and features.

Abstract

synkit is a Typst package for drawing syntax trees from bracket notation. It supports a wide range of features, including triangles, arrows, movement traces, multidominance, semantic annotation, cross-tree equivalence lines, and formatting options for quick adjustments. Trees can be drawn in four directions (down, up, left, right), and multiple trees can be stacked with shared arrow connections. Besides trees, the package also offers functions for numbered examples and glosses. This document serves as the official documentation for synkit, providing examples and explanations for all available parameters and features.
