# pardes A text environment in the acme tradition: columns of panes, each a tag over a file, a terminal, a PDF or an image. Left selects, middle executes, right looks; the keys are helix's; every session is a 9P filesystem any program can drive. Install with Zig 0.16: `zig build -Dplatform=tty --prefix ~/.local`, then run `pardes` or `pardes FILE`. Read the [guide](docs/typ/guide.typ) (about 10 minutes), then try `Tutor` inside pardes (about 15). Keep the [cheatsheet](docs/typ/cheatsheet.typ) beside you. Read [scripting](docs/typ/scripting.typ) (about 10) when you want to drive it from programs, and [setup](docs/typ/setup.typ) when you fit it into your shell and tools. The [reference](docs/typ/reference.typ) has every detail. `typst compile --root . --ignore-system-fonts docs/typ/book.typ` builds them into one PDF. Contributors: [building](docs/typ/building.typ).
