Environments

Bookly provides environments to structure the content of a book. Each environment is activated with a show rule placed in the main typ file at the desired location, and applies until the next environment.

Front matter

Environment for preliminary content (abstract, foreword, acknowledgments, etc.). Pages are numbered with Roman numerals and chapters are not numbered.

#show: front-matter

Main matter

Environment for the main content (introduction, tables of contents, chapters, conclusion, bibliography, etc.). Pages and chapters are numbered with Arabic numerals, and page numbering restarts at 1.

#show: main-matter

Appendix

Environment for the appendices. Chapters are numbered with letters (A, B, …), and figures, tables and equations follow the same pattern (e.g., A.1).

#show: appendix

Back matter

Environment for the closing pages of the book. Pages have neither header nor footer.
