Typst seems like a real contender for LaTeX. I've used and hated LaTeX for over 20 years. That the horror that is LaTeX is still the least worst typesetting system for print is really depressing.
I've been waiting for Typst to get HTML output. It's been under development for quite a while but seems to suffer from some bikeshedding [1].
Glad to see there's Pandoc support for Typst HTML (and LaTeX) export as a workaround. Gotta try it for my next paper!
Hey, Typst dev here. Regarding HTML export: It's not bikeshedding. It's more that, while we consider HTML as pretty important, we decided that fixing and improving the layout engine first was even more important. Basically getting what we have already right before starting to do more stuff.
That said, our plans for HTML export have definitely become more substantiated and concrete over the past year and once the current work on layout finishes, it is the next big thing on our list.
My bikeshedding fear came from the Github issue (forgot the link in the comment), where there is IMHO definite bikeshedding about e.g. tag names. But indeed, there seems to be important architectural concerns.
