> Markdown parser done right. Fast and easy to extend.
__[Live demo](https://markdown-it.github.io)__
- Follows the __[CommonMark spec](http://spec.commonmark.org/)__ + adds syntax extensions & sugar (URL autolinking, typographer).
- Configurable syntax! You can add new rules and even replace existing ones.
- High speed.
- [Safe](https://github.com/markdown-it/markdown-it/tree/master/docs/security.md) by default.
- Community-written __[plugins](https://www.npmjs.org/browse/keyword/markdown-it-plugin)__ and [other packages](https://www.npmjs.org/browse/keyword/markdown-it) on npm.

### Simple
```js
// node.js, "classic" way:
var MarkdownIt = require('markdown-it'),
md = new MarkdownIt();
var result = md.render('# markdown-it rulezz!');
// node.js, the same, but with sugar:
var md = require('markdown-it')();
var result = md.render('# markdown-it rulezz!');
// browser without AMD, added to "window" on script load
// Note, there is no dash in "markdownit".
var md = window.markdownit();
var result = md.render('# markdown-it rulezz!');
```
Single line rendering, without paragraph wrap:
```js
var md = require('markdown-it')();
var result = md.renderInline('__markdown-it__ rulezz!');
```
### Init with presets and options
(*) presets define combinations of active rules and options. Can be
`"commonmark"`, `"zero"` or `"default"` (if skipped). See
[API docs](https://markdown-it.github.io/markdown-it/#MarkdownIt.new) for more details.
```js
// commonmark mode
var md = require('markdown-it')('commonmark');
// default mode
var md = require('markdown-it')();
// enable everything
var md = require('markdown-it')({
html: true,
linkify: true,
typographer: true
});
// full options list (defaults)
var md = require('markdown-it')({
html: false, // Enable HTML tags in source
xhtmlOut: false, // Use '/' to close single tags (<br />).
// This is only for full CommonMark compatibility.
breaks: false, // Convert '\n' in paragraphs into <br>
langPrefix: 'language-', // CSS language prefix for fenced blocks. Can be
// useful for external highlighters.
linkify: false, // Autoconvert URL-like text to links
// Enable some language-neutral replacement + quotes beautification
typographer: false,
// Double + single quotes replacement pairs, when typographer enabled,
// and smartquotes on. Could be either a String or an Array.
//
// For example, you can use '«»„“' for Russian, '„“‚‘' for German,
// and ['«\xA0', '\xA0»', '‹\xA0', '\xA0›'] for French (including nbsp).
quotes: '“”‘’',
// Highlighter function. Should return escaped HTML,
// or '' if the source string is not changed and should be escaped externally.
// If result starts with <pre... internal wrapper is skipped.
highlight: function (/*str, lang*/) { return ''; }
});
```
### Plugins load
```js
var md = require('markdown-it')()
.use(plugin1)
.use(plugin2, opts, ...)
.use(plugin3);
```
### Syntax highlighting
Apply syntax highlighting to fenced code blocks with the `highlight` option:
```js
var hljs = require('highlight.js'); // https://highlightjs.org/
// Actual default values
var md = require('markdown-it')({
highlight: function (str, lang) {
if (lang && hljs.getLanguage(lang)) {
try {
return hljs.highlight(lang, str).value;
} catch (__) {}
}
return ''; // use external default escaping
}
});
```
Or with full wrapper override (if you need assign class to `<pre>`):
```js
var hljs = require('highlight.js'); // https://highlightjs.org/
// Actual default values
var md = require('markdown-it')({
highlight: function (str, lang) {
if (lang && hljs.getLanguage(lang)) {
try {
return '<pre class="hljs"><code>' +
hljs.highlight(lang, str, true).value +
'</code></pre>';
} catch (__) {}
}
return '<pre class="hljs"><code>' + md.utils.escapeHtml(str) + '</code></pre>';
}
});
```
### Linkify
`linkify: true` uses [linkify-it](https://github.com/markdown-it/linkify-it). To
configure linkify-it, access the linkify instance through `md.linkify`:
```js
md.linkify.tlds('.py', false); // disables .py as top level domain
```
## API

If you are going to write plugins - take a look at
[Development info](https://github.com/markdown-it/markdown-it/tree/master/docs).
## Syntax extensions
Embedded (enabled by default):
- [Tables](https://help.github.com/articles/organizing-information-with-tables/) (GFM)
- [Strikethrough](https://help.github.com/articles/basic-writing-and-formatting-syntax/#styling-text) (GFM)
Via plugins:
- [subscript](https://github.com/markdown-it/markdown-it-sub)
- [superscript](https://github.com/markdown-it/markdown-it-sup)
- [footnote](https://github.com/markdown-it/markdown-it-footnote)

- ... and [others](https://www.npmjs.org/browse/keyword/markdown-it-plugin)
### Manage rules
By default all rules are enabled, but can be restricted by options. On plugin
load all its rules are enabled automatically.
```js
// Activate/deactivate rules, with curring
var md = require('markdown-it')()
.disable([ 'link', 'image' ])
.enable([ 'link' ])
.enable('image');
// Enable everything
md = require('markdown-it')({
html: true,
linkify: true,
typographer: true,
});
```
## Benchmark
Here is the result of readme parse at MB Pro Retina 2013 (2.4 GHz):
```bash
make benchmark-deps
benchmark/benchmark.js readme
Selected samples: (1 of 28)
> README
Sample: README.md (7774 bytes)
> commonmark-reference x 1,222 ops/sec ±0.96% (97 runs sampled)
> current x 743 ops/sec ±0.84% (97 runs sampled)
> current-commonmark x 1,568 ops/sec ±0.84% (98 runs sampled)
> marked x 1,587 ops/sec ±4.31% (93 runs sampled)
```
__Note.__ CommonMark version runs with [simplified link normalizers](https://github.com/markdown-it/markdown-it/blob/master/benchmark/implementations/current-commonmark/index.js)
for more "honest" compare. Difference is ~ 1.5x.
As you can see, `markdown-it` doesn't pay with speed for it's flexibility.
Slowdown of "full" version caused by additional features not available in
other implementations.
## Authors
- Alex Kocharin [github/rlidwka](https://github.com/rlidwka)
- Vitaly Puzrin [github/puzrin](https://github.com/puzrin)
_markdown-it_ is the result of the decision of the authors who contributed to
99% of the _Remarkable_ code to move to a project with the same authorship but
new leadership (Vitaly and Alex). It's not a fork.
