@types/markdown-it
Advanced tools
Package description
The @types/markdown-it package provides TypeScript type definitions for the markdown-it library, a Markdown parser done right. It enables developers to use markdown-it in TypeScript projects with type checking, enhancing development experience by providing autocompletion and error checking based on the types of the markdown-it API.
Basic Parsing
This feature allows for the conversion of Markdown text into HTML. The code sample demonstrates how to create an instance of MarkdownIt and use it to render a simple Markdown string into HTML.
import MarkdownIt from 'markdown-it';
const md = new MarkdownIt();
const result = md.render('# markdown-it rulezz!');
Custom Renderer
This feature enables customization of the HTML output for specific Markdown elements. In the code sample, the rendering rules for strong (bold) text are modified to use '<b>' tags instead of the default '<strong>'.
import MarkdownIt from 'markdown-it';
const md = new MarkdownIt();
md.renderer.rules.strong_open = () => '<b>';
md.renderer.rules.strong_close = () => '</b>';
const result = md.render('**text**');
Plugin Usage
This feature demonstrates how to extend markdown-it with plugins. The code sample shows the use of the markdown-it-emoji plugin to render emojis within the Markdown text.
import MarkdownIt from 'markdown-it';
import emojiPlugin from 'markdown-it-emoji';
const md = new MarkdownIt();
md.use(emojiPlugin);
const result = md.render(':smile:');
Remark is an ecosystem of plugins for processing Markdown with JavaScript. It is highly extensible, similar to markdown-it with its plugin system, but built on the unified collective, making it part of a larger ecosystem for processing text.
Showdown is a JavaScript Markdown to HTML converter, similar to markdown-it in its basic functionality. It emphasizes extensibility and customization through options and extensions, though it might not offer as rich a plugin ecosystem as markdown-it.
Marked is a fast Markdown parser and compiler written in JavaScript. It is designed to be as compatible as possible with the original Markdown spec. Compared to markdown-it, marked focuses on speed and compliance with the original Markdown design, potentially offering less extensibility in terms of plugins.
