I was told by Latex experts to use \usepackage{fontspec} with Lualatex. It works ok with lualatex, but now my files do not compile with make4ht any more after I changed to \usepackage{fontspec}. Before I used to use 

\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}

But now I only use \usepackage{fontspec} as recommended to do. So I do not know why make4ht gives an error when compiling in lualatex mode:

\documentclass[11pt]{article}% 

\IfFileExists{luatex85.sty}{\usepackage{luatex85}}{}
\usepackage{fontspec}

\begin{document}
test
\end{document}

error

When I tried the suggestion in fontspec-package-accents-bezos-latex-error-command-acute-already

\documentclass[11pt]{article}% 

\IfFileExists{luatex85.sty}{\usepackage{luatex85}}{}
\usepackage[no-math]{fontspec}
\usepackage{accents}    

\begin{document}
test
\end{document}

I get new error

---------------------------------------------------
--- error --- Can't find/open file `file:lmroman10-regular:script=latn;+trep;+tlig;.tfm'
Make4ht: Fatal error. Command tex4ht returned exit code 256

but lualatex still compiles ok.

Only when I go back to 

\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}

will now lualatex and make4ht are happy.

I really do not know anything about all these packages, and fonts and all that, I simply want to know what is the correct thing to use, that is all so I do not get errors.

TL 2016 on Linux. I am only using lualatex now. Not pdflatex.

Edit:

Fontspec support have been just added to tex4ht, you can get it after TL update. Both XeLaTeX and LuaLaTeX are supported, although the implementation is different for both engines.

If you use non-latin scripts, you need to use a correct Script option in your font declaration, because all Unicode characters used in the document must be declared first. It is done automatically when you use the Script option.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}
% \setmainfont{TeX Gyre Termes}
\usepackage{polyglossia}
\setmainlanguage{czech}
\setotherlanguages{greek,russian,hindi}
\newfontfamily\greekfont{Linux Libertine O}[Script=Greek]
\newfontfamily\russianfont{Linux Libertine O}[Script=Cyrillic]
\newfontfamily\hindifont{Siddhanta}[Script=Devanagari]
\begin{document}
Příliš \textit{žluťoučký} kůň \textbf{úpěl} \textsc{ďábelské} ódy.

\begin{greek} 
  Η Πράγα (τσέχικα: Praha), είναι η πρωτεύουσα και μεγαλύτερη πόλη
  της Τσεχίας. Χτισμένη στον ποταμό Μολδάβα (Vltava), στην κεντρική Βοημία,
  έχει 1,2 εκατομμύριο κατοίκους. Αποκαλείται επίσης «η χρυσή πόλη» και «μητέρα
  των πόλεων». Από το 1992, το ιστορικό κέντρο της Πράγας ανήκει στον κατάλογο
  μνημείων παγκόσμιας κληρονομιάς της UNESCO.
\end{greek}

\begin{russian}
  Пра́га (чеш. Praha [ˈpraɦa]) — город и столица Чехии; административный центр

The resulting HTML document:

enter image description here

[Old answer] The convertor from DVI to HTML doesn't support OpenType fonts, which is automatically selected when the Fontspec package is loaded. This is well known tex4ht bug and also one which is hardest to fix.

There are two possible workarounds, both of them require modification of the document, unfortunately.

First is to use conditionally luainputenc package:

\documentclass[11pt]{article}% 

\IfFileExists{luatex85.sty}{\usepackage{luatex85}}{}
\ifdefined\HCode
\usepackage[utf8]{luainputenc}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\else
\usepackage{fontspec}
\fi

\begin{document}
test

příliš žluťoučký kůň úpěl \textit{ďábelské ódy}

\end{document}

the other option is to use alternative4ht package from helpers4ht bundle, which contains special configuration for fontspec with tex4ht:

\documentclass[11pt]{article}% 

\IfFileExists{luatex85.sty}{\usepackage{luatex85}}{}
\usepackage{alternative4ht}
\altusepackage{fontspec}

\begin{document}
test

příliš žluťoučký kůň úpěl \textit{ďábelské ódy}

\end{document}
