Ink is a fast and flexible Markdown parser written in Swift that converts Markdown strings into HTML. It supports front-matter metadata parsing and customizable post-processing modifiers, and powers static-site workflows like swiftbysundell.com.

Use cases

  • convert markdown to html in swift
  • parse markdown front matter metadata
  • render markdown for a static site generator
  • customize markdown parsing with modifiers
  • build a swift-based blog engine

When to choose

  • you need a fast, native Swift Markdown-to-HTML converter
  • you want built-in front-matter metadata parsing
  • you need fine-grained customization of parsing via modifiers
  • you are building Swift web or static-site tooling on macOS or Linux

When to avoid

  • you need full CommonMark spec compliance
  • your project is not in Swift
  • you need Markdown extensions like tables or footnotes out of the box
