Well, Typst is explicitly a no-go for anyone who has to submit a manuscript, until it they get a damn HTML representation, so Pandoc can get it to LaTeX. There's practically nowhere I could use Typst except my own notes, and I've tried!

There’s experimental HTML support. I’m using Typst as a static site builder for my website.

Sure, but they can't build Pandoc translation against an experimental format, so no LaTeX anytime soon.

The experimental status is more about that not everything is implemented yet (not that everything can be implemented, for example due to HTML not being oriented around having multiple pages in a document), so you have to write a bit of raw HTML sometimes. This is an example of how raw HTML looks, it's the shell for my webpage.
