I have enclosed a main.typ and an auxiliary file footnote.typ. Would someone please care to glance at the syntax? It is working, but I feel it is not pretty.

main.typ (2.4 KB)
Hello @Shashidhar_R,
This feels like a question about using Typst. Please take your time to read through the post below, and edit your post accordingly. Notably:
- Change your post to Questions
- Change your topic’s title to match your question, e.g., “How to make my code more readable?”
- Enclose your code directly in your post, as a working, minimal example if possible. See the post below for details on how to do that!
Thank you!

Do I re post my question?
I will change your topic to Questions, it’s fine, if you just reply to your topic if you can’t modify it anymore

OK is not a precise term, but I would say it’s good enough, so you can say it’s OK. Though the document doesn’t compile because of out of bounds error on footnote array.
Some fields already set to default value and only clutter the settings. Stuff like text(size: 10pt) can be omitted to text(10pt), but this I think is exclusive to text.size and text.fill.
Without specifications, I won’t add any safeguards or other modifications like creating a template function that might be unnecessary.
Here is a cleaned up version.
#let foot(n) = footnote((
[Pack my box with five dozen liqur jugs.],
[Pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs],
[Pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs],
[Pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs],
).at(n - 1))

Since there is a lot of small things that I’ve changed I’m not sure if you want to know every little bit of detail or not. You can ask for it. Knowing that some default won’t change 99.999% percent, it can be stripped a bit further:
#let title = [Pack My Box with Five Dozen Liquor Jugs]
#let authors = ("Author One", "Author Two")
#set page(margin: (inside: 1in, outside: 1in, y: 1in))
#set text(font: "Adamina")
#set list(indent: 1.5em)
#set par(
leading: 1.1em,
spacing: 1.6em,
justify: true,
linebreaks: "simple",
first-line-indent: 2em,
)
#show heading: set text(14pt)
#show heading: set block(above: 2.8em, below: 1.5em)
#set quote(block: true)
#show quote: set block(above: 1.8em)
#show quote: set pad(x: 2.5em)
#show quote.where(block: true): set par(leading: 0.65em)
#{
set align(center)
show: strong
text(16pt, title)
grid(gutter: 0.6em, ..authors.map(author => text(12pt, author)))
}
The only problems I see:
set page(margin: (inside: 1in, outside: 1in))used but no left/right pagebreak is used, so here it should be left/right.set quote(block: true)makes all quotes block-level by default, but no inline quote is used. So for block quotes,show quote: set pad(x: 2.5em)won’t work because quotes are not inline.- If multiple files are used anyway, then I would still create a template function that does all of the above, since there are still a lot of things.
- I can’t work without a formatter, which is one of many reasons why I don’t use the web app. Typstyle

Andrew, Many thanks. I knew I was clumsy, but I am learning. Suggestions much appreciated.
