Made a simple website that renders typst documents on github: GitHub - Myriad-Dreamin/gistd: Instantly share typst documents on git and other network storage.
Usage
Assuming that you have a GitHub link for example:
https://github.com/typst/templates/blob/main/charged-ieee/template/main.typ
Simply replace the github.com with gistd.myriad-dreamin.com:
https://gistd.myriad-dreamin.com/typst/templates/blob/main/charged-ieee/template/main.typ
Sample
https://gistd.myriad-dreamin.com/typst/templates/blob/main/charged-ieee/template/main.typ
Future Improvement
- Support compiler version
- Support loading fonts from Google Fonts

Nice!
Can this be hosted on a company’s own server?
The export to PDF is downloading something, but it doesn’t seem to be in PDF format. Is this coming, or a bug?
Also, how do you plan to license this software?
I added Apache 2.0 LICENSE to gistd. This is aligned to typst.

We could add docker container to help deploy. It should be easy, because gistd is a simple single-page app. The github action exhibits how to deploy gistd: gistd/.github/workflows/gh-pages.yml at 2407f0c0dc2c0bf1b59454077cd668264a1fcb57 · Myriad-Dreamin/gistd · GitHub

Could you elaborate? I cannot get with the “downlading something.”
When clicking the Export to PDF button on the top right, a PDF file gets downloaded by the browser but that file is not valid.
