lezer-markdown v0.14.5
lezer-markdown
This is an incremental Markdown (CommonMark with support for extension) parser that integrates well with the Lezer parser system. It does not in fact use the Lezer runtime (that runs LR parsers, and Markdown can't really be parsed that way), but it produces Lezer-style compact syntax trees and consumes fragments of such trees for its incremental parsing.
Note that this only parses the document, producing a data structure
that represents its syntactic form, and doesn't help with outputting
HTML. Also, in order to be single-pass and incremental, it doesn't do
some things that a conforming CommonMark parser is expected to
do—specifically, it doesn't validate link references, so it'll parse
[a][b]
and similar as a link, even if no [b]
reference is
declared.

The parser can, to a certain extent, be extended to handle additional syntax.
