“pandoc for the people”, the pandoc wasm web-app, is now available at https://pandoc.org/app/
It allows to run any kind of document conversion that pandoc supports in the browser. The documents never leave the computer, thus ensuring *full privacy*.
Conversions to pdf are done via Typst.

Pandoc in the browser

@pandoc sh-sshh... can you hear that?

that's the sound of a few quintillion haskell package dependencies being uninstalled from my laptop!
😙👌

@metaphil 😁 Sounds like you're on Arch Linux, as that's a general problem with Haskell apps on Arch. If you want to keep pandoc installed locally, then checkout the `pandoc-bin` package on AUR. It's not maintained by any of the pandoc core devs, but is generally accepted as the best way to install pandoc on Arch.
@pandoc thanks, good advice. the webapp is a great job, though. thanks for your efforts!
