[Lists]($list) do not rely on environments in Typst. Instead, they have
lightweight syntax like headings. To create an unordered list (`itemize`),

hyphen. For a [term list]($terms) (`description`), write `[/ Term: Description]`
instead.
Regarding the usage of monospace fonts (also known as "typewriter" font style
in LaTeX), it should be noted that using [`raw`] such as in
``[`monospace`]`` (where you'd use `\texttt{monospace}` in LaTeX) works for
most cases where you only have simple text. If you need to use formatting, such
as in `\texttt{monospace \textbf{bold}}`, you will need to replicate its look by
switch to changing the text font to a monospace font with
`#text(font: "DejaVu Sans Mono", size: 0.8em)[monospace *bold*]`, for example,
since `raw` only supports verbatim (unformatted) text. See its documentation
for more details.
## How do I use a command? { #commands }
LaTeX heavily relies on commands (prefixed by backslashes). It uses these
_macros_ to affect the typesetting process and to insert and manipulate content.
