I write markdown, use pandoc to make LaTeX and from that a PDF for a printed thing and just supply markdown for non-printed stuff.

I was surprised recently when I changed up my HTML and PDF toolstack not just how good pandoc was, but the entire ecosystem that had emerged around pandoc including pandocomatic and pandoc-resume.
pandoc is so good. And volunteer maintained.
Typst is pretty close to markdown for simple things, and scales nicely to hard things. So you don't really need to worry about the markdown-pandoc shuffle anymore.
Unfortunately typst doesn‘t support HTML output. It can only generate PDFs.
