Depending on the complexity of the project ahead, consider an editor which writes plain .tex files because LyX' own (default) format adds a layer of complexity. Perhaps you are/become comfortable with vim or Emacs (which takes some time get familiar for both) and their extensions for LaTeX, perhaps TeXmaker or TeXStudio (both freely available and cross-platform) is an option for you if you know that there are programs around to import e.g., spreadsheet data easier into a .tex than the manual import. While your mileage may vary, it is not that hard -- have a look at learnlatex.org.
With an export of your .lyx to .tex, which may be submitted to pandoc. The entry Demos showcases some examples from which you may infer the syntax, the entry Demos -> Try pandoc online offers an installation free test ground e.g., from latex to .docx or .odt (or others). The less complex the .tex file, the greater the chances this minimal version will work, so forget (for now) illustrations and bibliographic references. However, if you install pandoc (freely available, cross-platform) and read the documentation, you may access much more functionality (including insertion of images, use of a bibliography; generation of .pdf with pdfLaTeX [e.g., with MikTeX], etc.) There equally is a r/pandoc, too.
