More than just Markdown

Documentation | Releases

This projects goal is to implement a fast markdown parser with an extended syntax fitted for my needs.

• Imports
• Bibliography & Glossary
• AsciiMath
• Placeholders
• Advanced Images

• Google Chrome/Chromium (for PDF rendering)

You can download prebuilt binaries on the Releases Page.

Snekdown is available in the AUR.

You need a working rust installation, for example by using rustup.

cargo install snekdown

With pdf rendering

cargo install snekdown --features pdf

Use snekdown help and snekdown <subcommand> --help for more information.

snekdown render <input> <output>

snekdown watch <input> <output>

I've created a VisualStudio Code extension for Snekdown. This extension provides a preview of snekdown files, exports and other commands similar to the cli. The source code can be found here.

The end goal is to have a markup language with features similar to LaTeX.
