A blazing-fast Node.js module for converting Markdown to HTML — powered by Rust’s pulldown-cmark and Neon for seamless Node integration.

• ⚡ Ultra-fast conversion using Rust’s performance and pulldown-cmark.
• 🧩 Optional GitHub Flavored Markdown (GFM) support — tables, footnotes, strikethrough, task lists, and heading attributes.
• 📦 ES module export — easily import HTML in your frontend projects.
• 🛡️ TypeScript ready — includes full type definitions.

npm install rs-markdown-parser

💡 Note: To modify or rebuild the native module, follow the build instructions below.

If you're editing the Rust source or cross-compiling, use one of the following scripts:

The build will generate a native Node.js addon (index.node).

const { processMarkdown } = require("rs-markdown-parser");
const { join } = require("path");

const filePath = join(__dirname, "test.md");
const result = processMarkdown(filePath, false);

console.log(result); // => export default `<html_content>`;

import { processMarkdown } from "rs-markdown-parser";
import { join } from "path";

const filePath: string = join(__dirname, "test.md");
const result: string = processMarkdown(filePath, false);

console.log(result); // => export default `<html_content>`;

# Hello, World!

This is a **Markdown** file.
