doesn't that (export to html) already exist as part of org-mode?

Yes, I think the parent comment was referring to the need to either check in the HTML or have it generated server side: "define a CI task that uses Emacs to export to HTML".

Yes, this was the idea. Note taking in plain org is very convenient as you can back it up in a git forge (GitHub or GitLab) and notes can serve as a wiki for a small organization.

However, rendering is missing some features. By using a CI task that generates HTML (using Emacs, but on the cloud) it's possible to overcome this (hopefully temporal) limitation.
