Package Exports
- @mborne/markdown-to-html
- @mborne/markdown-to-html/index.js
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (@mborne/markdown-to-html) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.
Readme
markdown-to-html
Markdown renderer aiming at providing :
- A static site generator (converting .md to .html)
- A live server (serving rendered .md files)
Features
- Markdown files are rendered using the powerfull Marked library.
- Marked is extended with :
- Table of content generation in markdown files (
[[toc]]from pandoc) - The support of custom heading links (
# This is the title {#custom-id}) - The hability to rename
.mdto.htmlfor relative links for static site generation.
- Table of content generation in markdown files (
- A basic layout system based on handlebars with some built-in layouts :
- default to generate classic pages.
- remarkjs to generate slideshows.
- front-matter allows to use YAML metadata to :
- Overwrite page title (default is file path)
- Overwrite page lang (default is
"en")
- Partial HTML/JS views can be injected in the layout to bypass markdown limitation for some pages.
