An API that allows markdown syntax extension (which is supported by remark-parse) and a custom renderer for it.
Additionally it could have also an editor extension (more detail in use case bellow).
Use Case
The typical case is adding support for @ mentions. In the editor when I type @, the editor plugin displays a completion widget, the AST parses it with a special node type and the custom renderer renders a link to a user profile.
Problem
I can't extend markdown language.
