Render Markdown for Event Descriptions #126

Open neozenith opened 3 weeks ago

neozenith commented 3 weeks ago

Meetup has enabled rich descriptions which look like a markdown format. Could we get this content rendered from MD format to HTML format?

Hi @neozenith,

I have some suggestions for this issue:-

  1. We can create a function to parse the markdown text and use regex expression to change popular markdown to html, however that could be a cumbersome person.

  2. Using an external api like https://apyhub.com/utility/md-content-html to fetch the html formatted data, but this would come around costly if used for a number of requests.

  3. Creating our custom backend api on python or NodeJs use libraries to convert the md file to html file.

Would like to discuss as to what approach would be more appropriate over here?
