How Can I Convert Markdown To Html (should I Use An Existing Script)?

What is the best way to convert from markdown to html. Should i write my own script of use something already out there? Are there any existing markdown converters you can recommend

Solution 1:

I think you should try something opensource first, then if the existing solutions don't fit your needs either try modifying them or rolling your own.

Parsedown looks rather promising: http://parsedown.org/

Solution 2:

Check these PHP Libraries:

• Mark Down Extra
• Mark Down OO (GitHub: Doesn't exist anymore, than I checked)
• Parsedown (GitHub)
• PHP Markdown (GitHub)
• cebe/markdown (GitHub)
