neat-timetable is a template for creating timetable for university classes (class schedule) that use a 2-week system: numerator and denominator week. Essentially, the first week is a numerator week, therefore the second week is a denominator week, and then the cycle continues.

Usage

First, choose the “neat-timetable” template in https://typst.app or via CLI:

typst init @preview/neat-timetable:0.1.0

To use the default settings, you will need the Liberation typeface. Particularly the LiberationSans-Bold.ttf file.

You can also start using the template by directly importing it:

#import "@preview/neat-timetable:0.1.0": template, timetable
#show: template.with(group: "D1-21")
#pdf.embed("timetable.typ") // Make PDF reproducible and easy to edit.
#timetable(data: (
  "Monday": (
    ("PE 153",),
    (
      "Theoretical Computer Science lecture 201",
      "Engineering Graphics lecture 118",
    ),
    ("Cultural Studies lecture 3-208",),
  ),
  "Tuesday": (
    ("Foreign Language ex. 146",),
    ("Mathematical Analysis ex. 307",),
    (
      "High-Level Programming lab. II 158",
      "High-Level Programming lab. I 158",
    ),
  ),
  "Thursday": (
    ("Cultural Studies ex. 203", none),
    ("Mathematical Analysis lecture 1-302",),
  ),
  "Friday": (
    ("Analytical Geometry lecture 302",),
    ("Analytical Geometry ex. 111",),
  ),
))

Timetable simple example

Besides class name and location, you can, for example, include type of class (lecture, exercise, laboratory work, etc.), subgroup (if it exists, when there are many students), and professor name.

Automating data creation

If you have a structured representation of timetable that can be transformed to Typst dictionary to be used by timetable (e.g., ШУЦ1-31Б.json), you can automate everything, so that your Typst file only includes:

#import "/template.typ": get-timetable-info, template, timetable
#show: template
#pdf.embed("timetable.typ")
#timetable(..get-timetable-info(json("ШУЦ1-31Б.json")))

Timetable simple example

See automated-example-ru test.

If you would like to copy the Typst dictionary from the get-timetable-info, use repr:

#import "@preview/neat-timetable:0.1.0": get-timetable-info
#repr(get-timetable-info(json("ШУЦ1-31Б.json")).at("data")) // Data only
#repr(get-timetable-info(json("ШУЦ1-31Б.json")).at("group")) // Group only
#repr(get-timetable-info(json("ШУЦ1-31Б.json")) // `arguments` value

Then simply select text from the generated PDF, paste it in Typst source file and use like shown in Usage or Examples. Note that repr doesn’t have stable/defined output, so in future it might not produce valid Typst dictionary syntax. Furthermore, you will get a nice representation only if format-entry outputs str and not content (default implementation outputs str).
