Markdown Js
markdown-js is a JavaScript markdown parser and converter that transforms markdown text into HTML output. It functions as both a library and a command line interface tool for converting documents.
The project is centered on an abstract syntax tree representation, allowing markdown to be parsed into a structured tree for programmatic inspection and modification before the final rendering process. This intermediate representation enables custom markup processing and document transformations.
The toolset covers programmatic document parsing, static site generation, and CLI-based file processing.
Features
