Compile JavaScript library? #22

Open devinrhode2 opened 11 years ago

devinrhode2 commented 11 years ago

Why not use Emscripten to produce a super high-performance markdown javascript library for the browser? Could end up being used on StackOverflow and Github! ;)

Looks interesting. I'm not sure I have time to dive into this, but it seems as though this should be theoretically possible for someone who needs MMD in Javascript (I don't).

Would surely help to further spread MultiMarkdown. Lots of Markdown editors popup more and more -- as web apps. I just stumbled upon the Javascript based Brackets editor which seems to be highly popular among web developers and some guy from Adobe developed a Markdown extension for it: https://github.com/gruehle/MarkdownPreview

FYI gentlemen I have a working port of MMD4 in JS, compiled using Emscripten here: https://github.com/dtjm/plaintext.js. It's not totally polished yet (documentation needs to be fixed) but it works. The library is designed to be an abstraction over multiple plaintext formats, so it covers more than just MMD.
