## What it is
Woofmark is a modular, progressive Markdown and HTML editor component for the browser, written in vanilla JavaScript. It lets users toggle between Markdown source editing and rendered rich-text HTML editing, with pluggable parsers like megamark and domador.

## Use cases
- embed a markdown editor in a web page
- let users switch between markdown and html editing
- build a comment box with rich text formatting
- progressive enhancement of a textarea into a markdown editor
- customize markdown editor toolbar styling

## When to choose
- you want a lightweight, dependency-free vanilla JS markdown editor
- you need full control over editor styling and parsing behavior
- you want both markdown and HTML editing modes in one component

## When to avoid
- you need a batteries-included editor with polished default UI
- you need a full-featured editor with plugins, collaboration, or mobile support
- you want a React/Vue-integrated editor component

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: editor, markdown, ui-components
- domain: frontend, web-development, text-editors
- platform: browser
- tags: wysiwyg, vanilla-js, rich-text-editor, html-editor, javascript
