Marked
Marked is
1. built for speed.*
2. a low-level markdown compiler that allows frequent parsing of large chunks of markdown without caching or blocking for long periods of time.**
3. light-weight while implementing all markdown features from the supported flavors & specifications.***
4. available as a command line interface (CLI) and running in client- or server-side JavaScript projects.
* Still working on metrics for comparative analysis and definition.
** As few dependencies as possible.
*** Strict compliance could result in slower processing when running comparative benchmarking.
Installation
**CLI:** `npm install -g marked`
**In-browser:** `npm install marked --save`

Supported Markdown specifications
We actively support the features of the following [Markdown flavors](https://github.com/commonmark/CommonMark/wiki/Markdown-Flavors).
|Flavor |Version |
|:----------------------------------------------------------|:----------|
|The original markdown.pl |-- |
|[CommonMark](http://spec.commonmark.org/0.28/) |0.28 |
|[GitHub Flavored Markdown](https://github.github.com/gfm/) |0.28 |
By supporting the above Markdown flavors, it's possible that Marked can help you use other flavors as well; however, these are not actively supported by the community.
Security
The only completely secure system is the one that doesn't exist in the first place. Having said that, we take the security of Marked very seriously.
Therefore, please disclose potential security issues by email to the project [committers](AUTHORS.md) as well as the [listed owners within NPM](https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/owner). We will provide an initial assessment of security reports within 48 hours and should apply patches within 2 weeks (also, feel free to contribute a fix for the issue).
