“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 amazing! Thanks for the good work!

If I can give a suggestion: don't block the whole UI while loading the wasm, but just the "convert" button, so that people can pick their document and options in parallel to the code loading

@miniBill Thank you! The UI has been updated following your suggestion. 🙏
