Description : Markdown parser and HTML renderer for Go
Package github.com/gomarkdown/markdown is a Go library for parsing
Markdown text and rendering as HTML.
.
It's very fast and supports common extensions.
.
markdown is a fork of v2 of https://github.com/russross/blackfriday
that is:
.
* actively maintained (sadly in Feb 2018 blackfriday was inactive for 5
months with many bugs and pull requests accumulated)
* refactored API (split into ast/parser/html sub-packages)
.
Blackfriday itself was based on C implementation sundown
(https://github.com/vmg/sundown) which in turn was based on libsoldout
(http://fossil.instinctive.eu/libsoldout/home).
Reason for packaging:
Required by golang-github-mmarkdown-mmark (See ITP at #916202)
