showdown-tufte v1.0.0

showdown-tufte

A Showdown Extension to output HTML for use with Tufte-CSS

Introduction

Tufte-CSS is a stylesheet to make it easy to typeset HTML content using Tufte's iconic two-column handout style. But it makes some strong assumptions about the markup that it will be used with, and no markdown compiler is going to meet those assumptions by default. But this extension enables showdown to generate HTML to be styled by Tufte-CSS.

Usage

Get it

• Node: It's on NPM as showdown-tufte.

let md = "<your markdown here>";
let converter = new showdown.Converter({ 'extensions': ['tufte'] });
let html = converter.makeHtml(text);
