More than just Markdown

Description

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

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

Editors

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.
