Adding support or guide on marked extensions

[DJMogens]

Hi. Not sure if i am just incompetant and missed something, but i a feature request in my app to have alerts in the text like the ones github provides.

Should be possible with the marked extension here:

https://www.npmjs.com/package/marked-alert

How can i add this to the marked engine, and other extensions?

I will take a look over the next few days and give it some thought :)

@DJMogens Ok, so here is what I can gather from your request and where the project currently is.

Svelte-Markdown was built off of the marked lexer and not the marked engine. This means we get back tokens, and it does not include the plugins from what I can gather in my limited testing yesterday.

We introduced htmlparser2 as lots of the previous requests from the other package were because of HTML not showing in markdown.

I believe, I know I did, that people choose this library because it does NOT include the @html syntax to just spit out the HTML, and they like control over the output.

I believe this would leave us in a forked position on if we parse the full thing together, or if we parse the tokens then do the HTML like we currently are.

Here is a REPL with what I mean from the above. If you could double check it and ensure I am playing with marked-alert properly (I have not used the library). If I am, then I will come up with a solution for the issue but maybe I am missing something 🤷‍♂️

Thank you for your time, and let me know your thoughts!

Thanks for looking into it. I also saw some people getting to actually inject the extensions, but it is getting a bit hacky :/

Currently looking into Carta, which might fit my use case better.

@DJMogens Let me know if it does not fit your needs and I will come up with a plan to get it to work for you!

@DJMogens did you get Carta to do what you need? Or do you want me to take a stab at it?
