# html/from-markdown Render markdown to HTML — a CommonMark-lite renderer covering the deft markdown dialect plus the standard extras scripts actually meet. All text is HTML-escaped on output, so the result is safe to embed. ## Syntax

[html/from-markdown $md ?opts]

## Parameters - `$md` — markdown source text (string) - `$opts` — optional map: `:full true` wraps the output in an html/head/body skeleton (with `<meta charset>`); default emits the body content only ## Examples

[html/from-markdown "# Head\n\nSome **bold**, *italic*, `code`, and a [link](https://dft)."]
# => "<h1>Head</h1>\n<p>Some <strong>bold</strong>, <em>italic</em>, ...

[html/from-markdown "| A | B |\n| :--- | ---: |\n| 1 | 2 |"]
# => a <table> with style="text-align:…" alignment attributes

# Text is escaped — embedded markup stays literal
[html/from-markdown "plain <b>tags</b>"]
# => "<p>plain &lt;b&gt;tags&lt;/b&gt;</p>\n"

# Backslash escapes keep markdown characters literal
[html/from-markdown [|printf 'a \\*star\\*']]
# => "<p>a *star*</p>\n"

## Returns An HTML string. Supported: ATX headings `#`–`######`, fenced code (``` ``` ````/`~~~` with language → `class="language-x"`), flat and ordered lists, pipe tables (alignment colons kept), single-level `> ` blockquotes, `hr`, paragraphs, and inline `` `code` ``, `**bold**`, `*italic*`, `[links](url "title")`, ``, autolinks, backslash escapes. Intraword underscores never emphasise (`snake_case` stays plain). Pairs with `html/to-markdown` for round-trips within the shared subset. ## See Also `html/to-markdown`, `html/serialize`, `html/parse`
