Your statement is not correct, LuaLaTeX can output any unicode character you need and also you can use Lua as well for scripting.

- michal_h21 1y agoOther incorrect statement is that LaTeX cannot generate HTML. There is number of projects for LaTeX to HTML conversion (TeX4ht, Lwarp, LaTeXML), also Pandoc can convert subset of LaTeX to HTML.
- yannis 1y agoAbsolutely; One should also keep in mind why do you need the HTML, drop the pdf file on Google drive, and it will serve it fine, no webservers can limit who can see it, no friction for authorizations etc. Granted difficult to view on a mobile, but who can really do serious reading of a paper on mobile?
- Timwi 1y agoOK so either you're confirming that LaTeX is useless for anyone who actually needs to generate HTML and not PDF, or you're implying that nobody ever needs to use HTML and the whole Internet should just be PDFs?
- Timwi 1y agoI'm confused. Your first sentence implies that LaTeX can generate HTML and then you process to list other projects that you need. This whole thread is about an alternative to LaTeX which can actually genuinely just output HTML.
- Timwi 1y agoI admit I was unclear but I wasn't talking about output.
