Lute is a structured Markdown engine implemented in Go and compiled to JavaScript via GopherJS. It fully implements the GFM/CommonMark specifications with enhanced support for Chinese text and powers editors like Vditor and SiYuan.

Use cases

• parse markdown to html in go
• markdown engine with good chinese text support
• convert markdown to block dom for editors
• commonmark and gfm compliant markdown parser
• use the same markdown engine in go and javascript
• render markdown with math formulas and code highlighting
• parse markdown into an ast

When to choose

• you need a spec-compliant GFM/CommonMark parser in Go or JavaScript
• your content is Chinese-heavy and other engines mishandle it
• you build editors like Vditor/SiYuan needing block-level DOM output

When to avoid

• you need a tiny, minimal markdown converter
• you require plugins from other ecosystems like markdown-it or remark
• you need a permissively licensed library (it uses MulanPSL)
