“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*.

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

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. -

@agowa338 If you want to be absolutely, 110% certain that no data leaves your device, then put your browser into "offline mode" after loading the app. Firefox has an option for that in the “File” menu, and most other browsers allow to do it via the developer tools console, under the “Network” tab.
But if that's a real concern for some reason, then consider to run a dockerized version of pandoc instead. A container without network access gives similar guarantees. -

Conversions to pdf are done via Typst.@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

Conversions to pdf are done via Typst.@pandoc i use pandoc as part of a static website build using Deno. I think this will let me switch out the system command shell call to a wasm call.

@bri7 I'd love to see the result (if you can share it).

@pandoc my website is https://notes.yip.pe
the build script is listed in the index, as a polyglot file: it builts itself into an html file along with the other pages. each html file has an .md file source that just needs the extension changed.
so, because deno kinda follows web standards i may at some point some day be able to host the static builder in the browser as well as run it offline in a terminal. one day

Conversions to pdf are done via Typst.@pandoc This is very cool! (and useful.) If you are ever in need of hosting for it (or any other pandoc project) then https://lysator.liu.se, a computer association I'm in can provide it for free.

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