“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 for the people

@pandoc I tried the #LaTeX example from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LaTeX but pandoc WebÄpp threw an error when converting to PDF. :-(

(I did not expect a WebÄpp to be able to load texlive and everything.)

Besides my test I think this WebÄpp is neat.

@txt_file We'd like to investigate the error, could you post some details? You can also file a bug report directly at http://github.com/jgm/pandoc/issues
@pandoc Will see whether I find the time and energy to file a proper issue report instead of "social" media post.
