On github, some elements are not rendered properly. To read a properly rendered version, visit [my blog].

MDxt is an extended markdown format. Though not a strict superset of [gfm], MDxt supports most of its features. You can read more about it here
Some elements require proper CSS files to be rendered. You can either write your own, or use CSS files in this repo.

[GFM] is a Github-flavored markdown format, which is one of the most widely used markdown extension.
MDxt can read most gfm documents, but the output is different. (ex: unlike gfm, fenced code blocks are rendered to tables.) It doesn't support some of gfm's syntaxes. (ex: indented code blocks, setext headings, and a few more)
I won't make any compatibility layers for gfm (ex: GFM <-> MDxt converter). Because some elements are impossible to convert to GFM formats. They require <script>
tags in their output HTML, which are not supported in GFM and most other markdown extensions.
Vec<u16>
Reading the source code, you'll see tons of Vec<u16>
. Unlike most other crates, the engine doesn't use Vec<u8>
for manipulating strings. That's because CJK characters don't fit in u8
characters. To handle them easily, Vec<u16>
is the only choice.
