Marked is a JavaScript library that parses and compiles Markdown into HTML. It works in Node.js, browsers, and as a command‑line tool, and is designed for speed and low overhead.
Use cases
- convert markdown files to HTML for static sites
- render README or documentation content in web applications
- process markdown input from a CLI pipeline
- integrate a lightweight markdown engine into a Node.js server
- generate HTML previews of user‑written markdown in a browser
When to choose
- You need a fast, zero‑dependency markdown parser.
- You want a library that works both in Node.js and the browser.
- You prefer a simple CLI tool for quick markdown‑to‑HTML conversion.
When to avoid
- You require built‑in HTML sanitization for untrusted input.
- You need extensive custom rendering beyond what extensions provide.
- You depend on a markdown engine with a large ecosystem of plugins.
