Lwarp – Converts LaTeX to HTML

Friendly reminder that if you need to convert from {document format} to {other document format}, Pandoc[1] is the the place to go.

Pandoc can convert LaTeX to HTML or HTML to LaTeX!

pandoc is much less powerful here since it can only parse a subset of LaTeX, as opposed to LaTeXML or lwarp which actually processes the LaTeX/TeX code expanding the macros etc, and then generates the output HTML/XML.

pandoc is nice for simple documents, but it is completely inadequate for many use-cases, which is why ArXiv is using LaTeXML and tikz.dev is using lwarp, rather than the more ubiquitous pandoc.
