Beginner question - can I use Typst blocks in the HTML output format?

[mjjmat]

Description

I am new to Quarto and new to Typst as well, and I am struggling to understand how Typst integrates within the multiple formats in Quarto.

I understand from the docs that "pure" Typst blocks can be included in .qmd files. I could follow the tutorials and create a pdf through Typst, all is fine. The pdf includes both sections in markdown and "pure" Typst sections.

I can also follow the other tutorials to create a website, using markdown.

But if I try to create both an HTML and a pdf output, the Typst blocks do not appear at all in the HTML output.
Is there any way to obtain both outputs from Typst blocks?

The reason I am asking is that I find Typst markup easier and more elegant than Markdown, and since I am relatively new with both, I would rather skip Markdown entirely (or as much as possible) in my source files and only use Typst blocks (and code blocks).
Is this simply not possible, or perhaps am I missing something obvious to make it work?

Thanks!

No, because Quarto does only do markdown to other formats.

Typst allows to natively export to PDF and HTML (under development).

Thank you for your answer.

You mean "Typst outside of Quarto", I assume (with their app or an editor + Typst compiler)? I will investigate that, but I was hoping to find something allowing me to mix code blocks that are actually executed with text, and that works very well in Quarto.

Yes, I meant Typst alone.

Quarto is markdown as input.
The only way if possible, would be to design a Lua filter that uses Pandoc to do Typst to HTML, but this becomes quite advanced and really not straightforward.

OK thanks!
