Snarkdown

Snarkdown

Snarkdown is a dead simple **1kb** [Markdown] parser. It's designed to be as minimal as possible, for constrained use-cases where a full Markdown parser would be inappropriate. ## Features - **Fast:** since it's basically one regex and a huge if statement - **Tiny:** it's 1kb of gzipped ES3 - **Simple:** pass a Markdown string, get back an HTML string > **Note:** Tables are not yet supported. If you love impossible to read regular expressions, submit a PR! > > **Note on XSS:** Snarkdown [doesn't sanitize HTML](https://github.com/developit/snarkdown/issues/70), since its primary target usage doesn't require it. ## Demos & Examples - ⚛️ [**Snarky**](https://snarky.surge.sh) - markdown editor built with Preact & Snarkdown - ✏️ [**Simple Markdown Editor**](http://jsfiddle.net/developit/828w6t1x/) ## Usage Snarkdown exports a single function, which parses a string of Markdown and returns a String of HTML. Couldn't be simpler. The snarkdown module is available in [every module format](https://unpkg.com/snarkdown/dist/) you'd ever need: ES Modules, CommonJS, UMD... ```js import snarkdown from 'snarkdown'; let md = '_this_ is **easy** to `use`.'; let html = snarkdown(md); console.log(html); // this is easy to use. ``` ### Add-ons and Libraries - For Webpack users, [`snarkdown-loader`](https://github.com/Plugin-contrib/snarkdown-loader) renders markdown files to html.
