That said, if you're working in a technical academic field, LaTeX is worth learning. For conversion, while there are other options, these days, pandoc probably gives the best results. But the results are pretty much never perfect, and to fix the problems, you'll need to know some LaTeX. Some learning resources include the not so short introduction, which you can read in a couple hours, as well as learnlatex.org's tutorials, and Overleaf's documentation (though I don't recommend using Overleaf itself).
I wrote my own web based LaTeX editor I can use if I want access to my LaTeX files from a different computer, something I never would have been able to do if I hadn't learned how the pieces work together (though I actually use neovim over ssh more often).
