Markly

A parser and abstract syntax tree for Markdown documents (CommonMark compatible) in Ruby. Originally forked from CommonMarker. It also includes extensions to the CommonMark spec as documented in the GitHub Flavored Markdown spec, such as support for tables, strikethroughs, and autolinking.

This code base was originally forked from Commonmarker before they switched from cmark-gfm (C) to comrak (Rust). The original implementation provided access to the abstract syntax tree (AST), which is useful for building tools on top of Markdown. The Rust implementation does not provide this functionality, and so this fork was created to continue to provide these (and more) features.

Please see the project documentation for more details.
