# Visualization & Diagrams
Three levels of visualization in Typst, all mappable to hiccup.
---
## 1. Built-in Shapes
Typst has basic shapes built-in. Simple and direct.
### Rectangle
**Clojure:**
```clojure
[:rect {:width "2cm" :height "1cm" :fill "blue"} "Label"]
```
**Typst:**
```typst
#rect(width: 2cm, height: 1cm, fill: blue)[Label]
```
### Square
**Clojure:**
```clojure
[:square {:size "1cm" :stroke "2pt + red"}]
```
**Typst:**
```typst
#square(size: 1cm, stroke: 2pt + red)
```
### Circle
**Clojure:**
```clojure
[:circle {:radius "0.5cm" :fill "green"}]
```
**Typst:**
```typst
#circle(radius: 0.5cm, fill: green)
```
### Ellipse
**Clojure:**
```clojure
[:ellipse {:width "2cm" :height "1cm"}]
```
**Typst:**
```typst
#ellipse(width: 2cm, height: 1cm)
```
### Polygon
**Clojure:**
```clojure
[:polygon {:fill "yellow"} [0 0] [1 0] [0.5 1]]
```
**Typst:**
```typst
#polygon(fill: yellow, (0pt, 0pt), (1pt, 0pt), (0.5pt, 1pt))
```
### Line
**Clojure:**
```clojure
[:line {:start [0 0] :end [100 50] :stroke "2pt"}]
```
**Typst:**
```typst
#line(start: (0pt, 0pt), end: (100pt, 50pt), stroke: 2pt)
```
### Path
**Clojure:**
```clojure
[:path {:closed true :fill "blue"} [0 0] [10 0] [10 10] [0 10]]
```
**Typst:**
```typst
#path(closed: true, fill: blue, (0pt, 0pt), (10pt, 0pt), (10pt, 10pt), (0pt, 10pt))
```
### Curve (Bézier)
**Clojure:**
```clojure
[:curve
[:move [0 0]]
[:cubic [10 20] [30 20] [40 0]]]
```
**Typst:**
```typst
#curve(
curve.move((0pt, 0pt)),
curve.cubic((10pt, 20pt), (30pt, 20pt), (40pt, 0pt)),
)
```

## 2. CeTZ - Canvas Drawing
For complex custom drawings. Like TikZ for LaTeX.
### Basic Canvas
**Clojure:**
```clojure
[:cetz/canvas
[:cetz/line [0 0] [2 2]]
[:cetz/circle [1 1] {:radius 0.5}]
[:cetz/rect [0 0] [2 1] {:fill "blue"}]]
```
**Typst:**
```typst
#import "@preview/cetz:0.4.2"
#cetz.canvas({
import cetz.draw: *
line((0, 0), (2, 2))
circle((1, 1), radius: 0.5)
rect((0, 0), (2, 1), fill: blue)
})
```
### Line with Multiple Points
**Clojure:**
```clojure
[:cetz/line [0 0] [1 0] [1 1] [0 1] {:close true}]
```
**Typst:**
```typst
line((0, 0), (1, 0), (1, 1), (0, 1), close: true)
```
### Arc
**Clojure:**
```clojure
[:cetz/arc [0 0] {:start 0 :stop 90 :radius 1}]
```
**Typst:**
```typst
arc((0, 0), start: 0deg, stop: 90deg, radius: 1)
```
### Bezier Curve
**Clojure:**
```clojure
[:cetz/bezier [0 0] [1 1] [0.5 2] [0.5 -1]]
```
**Typst:**
```typst
bezier((0, 0), (1, 1), (0.5, 2), (0.5, -1))
```
### Content Label in Canvas
**Clojure:**
```clojure
[:cetz/content [1 1] "Label here"]
[:cetz/content [0 0] [:strong "Bold label"]]
```
**Typst:**
```typst
content((1, 1), [Label here])
content((0, 0), [#strong[Bold label]])
```
### Architecture Boxes Example
**Clojure:**
```clojure
(defn box-with-label [pos size label]
(let [[x y] pos
[w h] size
cx (+ x (/ w 2))
cy (+ y (/ h 2))]
(list
[:cetz/rect pos [(+ x w) (+ y h)] {:fill "lightblue" :stroke "black"}]
[:cetz/content [cx cy] label])))
[:cetz/canvas
(box-with-label [0 0] [3 2] "Frontend")
(box-with-label [5 0] [3 2] "Backend")
(box-with-label [10 0] [3 2] "Database")
[:cetz/line [3 1] [5 1] {:mark {:end ">"}}]
[:cetz/line [8 1] [10 1] {:mark {:end ">"}}]]
```
**Typst:**
```typst
#cetz.canvas({
import cetz.draw: *
// Frontend
rect((0, 0), (3, 2), fill: lightblue, stroke: black)
content((1.5, 1), [Frontend])
// Backend
rect((5, 0), (8, 2), fill: lightblue, stroke: black)
content((6.5, 1), [Backend])
// Database
rect((10, 0), (13, 2), fill: lightblue, stroke: black)
content((11.5, 1), [Database])
// Arrows
line((3, 1), (5, 1), mark: (end: ">"))
line((8, 1), (10, 1), mark: (end: ">"))
})
```

## 3. Fletcher - Diagrams & Flowcharts
High-level diagram DSL. Best for architecture, flowcharts, state machines.
### Basic Diagram
**Clojure:**
```clojure
[:fletcher/diagram {:node-stroke "1pt" :spacing "2em"}
[:node [0 0] "Start"]
[:edge "->"]
[:node [1 0] "Process"]
[:edge "->"]
[:node [2 0] "End"]]
```
**Typst:**
```typst
#import "@preview/fletcher:0.5.8" as fletcher: diagram, node, edge
#diagram(
node-stroke: 1pt,
spacing: 2em,
node((0, 0), [Start]),
edge("-|>"),
node((1, 0), [Process]),
edge("-|>"),
node((2, 0), [End]),
)
```
### Node Shapes
**Clojure:**
```clojure
[:node [0 0] "Default"]
[:node [1 0] "Circle" {:shape :circle}]
[:node [2 0] "Diamond" {:shape :diamond}]
[:node [3 0] "Pill" {:shape :pill}]
[:node [4 0] "Hexagon" {:shape :hexagon}]
[:node [5 0] "Cylinder" {:shape :cylinder}]
```
**Typst:**
```typst
node((0, 0), [Default]),
node((1, 0), [Circle], shape: circle),
node((2, 0), [Diamond], shape: fletcher.shapes.diamond),
node((3, 0), [Pill], shape: fletcher.shapes.pill),
node((4, 0), [Hexagon], shape: fletcher.shapes.hexagon),
node((5, 0), [Cylinder], shape: fletcher.shapes.cylinder),
```
### Edge Styles
**Clojure:**
```clojure
[:edge "->"] ; simple arrow
[:edge "->>"] ; double arrow
[:edge "--"] ; no arrow (line)
[:edge "<->"] ; bidirectional
[:edge "hook->"] ; hook arrow
[:edge "|->"] ; maps-to arrow
```
**Typst:**
```typst
edge("-|>"),
edge("-|>|>"),
edge("--"),
edge("<|-|>"),
edge("hook-|>"),
edge("|-|>"),
```
### Directional Edges
**Clojure:**
```clojure
[:edge "r" "->"] ; go right
[:edge "d" "->"] ; go down
[:edge "u" "->"] ; go up
[:edge "l" "->"] ; go left
[:edge "r,d" "->"] ; right then down
```
**Typst:**
```typst
edge("r", "-|>"),
edge("d", "-|>"),
edge("u", "-|>"),
edge("l", "-|>"),
edge("r,d", "-|>"),
```
### Edge with Label
**Clojure:**
```clojure
[:edge [0 0] [1 0] "->" {:label "HTTP" :label-pos 0.5}]
```
**Typst:**
```typst
edge((0, 0), (1, 0), "-|>", label: [HTTP], label-pos: 0.5),
```
### Curved Edge
**Clojure:**
```clojure
[:edge [0 0] [1 0] "->" {:bend 20}]
```
**Typst:**
```typst
edge((0, 0), (1, 0), "-|>", bend: 20deg),
```
### Flowchart Example
**Clojure:**
```clojure
[:fletcher/diagram {:node-stroke "1pt" :node-fill "white" :spacing "3em"}
;; Nodes
[:node [0 0] "Start" {:shape :pill}]
[:node [0 1] "Input Data"]
[:node [0 2] "Valid?" {:shape :diamond}]
[:node [1 2] "Error" {:fill "red.lighten(80%)"}]
[:node [0 3] "Process"]
[:node [0 4] "End" {:shape :pill}]
;; Edges
[:edge [0 0] [0 1] "->"]
[:edge [0 1] [0 2] "->"]
[:edge [0 2] [1 2] "->" {:label "no"}]
[:edge [0 2] [0 3] "->" {:label "yes"}]
[:edge [1 2] [0 1] "->" {:bend -40}]
[:edge [0 3] [0 4] "->"]]
```
**Typst:**
```typst
#import "@preview/fletcher:0.5.8" as fletcher: diagram, node, edge
#diagram(
node-stroke: 1pt,
node-fill: white,
spacing: 3em,
// Nodes
node((0, 0), [Start], shape: fletcher.shapes.pill),
node((0, 1), [Input Data]),
node((0, 2), [Valid?], shape: fletcher.shapes.diamond),
node((1, 2), [Error], fill: red.lighten(80%)),
node((0, 3), [Process]),
node((0, 4), [End], shape: fletcher.shapes.pill),
// Edges
edge((0, 0), (0, 1), "-|>"),
edge((0, 1), (0, 2), "-|>"),
edge((0, 2), (1, 2), "-|>", label: [no]),
edge((0, 2), (0, 3), "-|>", label: [yes]),
edge((1, 2), (0, 1), "-|>", bend: -40deg),
edge((0, 3), (0, 4), "-|>"),
)
```
### Architecture Diagram Example
**Clojure:**
```clojure
[:fletcher/diagram {:spacing "4em" :node-stroke "1pt"}
;; Frontend layer
[:node [0 0] "Web App" {:fill "blue.lighten(80%)"}]
[:node [1 0] "Mobile App" {:fill "blue.lighten(80%)"}]
;; API Gateway
[:node [0.5 1] "API Gateway" {:shape :hexagon :fill "green.lighten(80%)"}]
;; Services
[:node [0 2] "Auth Service" {:shape :pill}]
[:node [1 2] "User Service" {:shape :pill}]
[:node [2 2] "Order Service" {:shape :pill}]
;; Data layer
[:node [0 3] "PostgreSQL" {:shape :cylinder}]
[:node [1 3] "Redis" {:shape :cylinder :fill "red.lighten(80%)"}]
[:node [2 3] "MongoDB" {:shape :cylinder :fill "green.lighten(80%)"}]
;; Connections
[:edge [0 0] [0.5 1] "->"]
[:edge [1 0] [0.5 1] "->"]
[:edge [0.5 1] [0 2] "->"]

[:edge [0 2] [0 3] "->"]
[:edge [1 2] [1 3] "->"]
[:edge [2 2] [2 3] "->"]]
```
**Typst:**
```typst
#import "@preview/fletcher:0.5.8" as fletcher: diagram, node, edge
#diagram(
spacing: 4em,
node-stroke: 1pt,
// Frontend layer
node((0, 0), [Web App], fill: blue.lighten(80%)),
node((1, 0), [Mobile App], fill: blue.lighten(80%)),
// API Gateway
node((0.5, 1), [API Gateway], shape: fletcher.shapes.hexagon, fill: green.lighten(80%)),
// Services
node((0, 2), [Auth Service], shape: fletcher.shapes.pill),
node((1, 2), [User Service], shape: fletcher.shapes.pill),
node((2, 2), [Order Service], shape: fletcher.shapes.pill),

edge((0, 2), (0, 3), "-|>"),
edge((1, 2), (1, 3), "-|>"),
edge((2, 2), (2, 3), "-|>"),
)
```

## 4. DSL Helpers
Build higher-level abstractions on top.
**Clojure:**
```clojure
(defn service [id name & {:keys [x y color] :or {color "white"}}]
[:node [x y] name {:id id :shape :pill :fill color}])
(defn database [id name & {:keys [x y color] :or {color "gray.lighten(80%)"}}]
[:node [x y] name {:id id :shape :cylinder :fill color}])
(defn connects [from to & {:keys [label style] :or {style "->"}}]
[:edge from to style (when label {:label label})])
[:fletcher/diagram {:spacing "3em"}
(service :auth "Auth" :x 0 :y 0)
(service :users "Users" :x 1 :y 0)
(database :pg "PostgreSQL" :x 0 :y 1)
(database :redis "Redis" :x 1 :y 1 :color "red.lighten(80%)")
(connects :auth :pg)
(connects :users :redis :label "cache")]
```
**Typst:**
```typst
#diagram(
spacing: 3em,
node((0, 0), [Auth], shape: fletcher.shapes.pill, fill: white),
node((1, 0), [Users], shape: fletcher.shapes.pill, fill: white),
node((0, 1), [PostgreSQL], shape: fletcher.shapes.cylinder, fill: gray.lighten(80%)),
node((1, 1), [Redis], shape: fletcher.shapes.cylinder, fill: red.lighten(80%)),
edge((0, 0), (0, 1), "-|>"),
edge((1, 0), (1, 1), "-|>", label: [cache]),
)
```
