  .use(require('remark-stringify'))
  .use(require('remark-prism'), {
    /* options */
  })
  .use(require('remark-html'))
  .process(file, (err, file) => console.log(String(file)));

Using rehype (hast):

require('unified')()
  .use(require('remark-parse'))
  .use(require('remark-prism'), {
    /* options */
  })
  .use(require('remark-rehype'))
  .use(require('rehype-format'))
  .use(require('rehype-stringify'))
  .process(file, (err, file) => console.log(String(file)));

Using mdx:

console.log(
  await require('@mdx-js/mdx')(src, {
    commonmark: true,
    gfm: true,
    remarkPlugins: [
      [
        require('remark-prism'),
        {
          /* options */
        },
      ],
    ],
  }),
);
