How can I convert markdown to html (should i use an existing script)? [closed]

Answer 1

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)

Answer 2

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/
