## What is this?

This package contains extensions that add support for all features enabled by
GFM to [`micromark`][micromark].
It supports autolink literals, footnotes, strikethrough, tables, tagfilter, and
tasklists.

## When to use this

This project is useful when you want to support GFM in markdown.

You can use these extensions when you are working with [`micromark`][micromark].
Alternatively, you can also use the underlying features separately:

*   [`micromark-extension-gfm-autolink-literal`][gfm-autolink-literal]
    — support GFM [autolink literals][]
*   [`micromark-extension-gfm-footnote`][gfm-footnote]
    — support GFM [footnotes][]
*   [`micromark-extension-gfm-strikethrough`][gfm-strikethrough]
    — support GFM [strikethrough][]
*   [`micromark-extension-gfm-table`][gfm-table]
    — support GFM [tables][]
*   [`micromark-extension-gfm-tagfilter`][gfm-tagfilter]
    — support GFM [tagfilter][]
*   [`micromark-extension-gfm-task-list-item`][gfm-task-list-item]
    — support GFM [tasklists][]

When you need a syntax tree, combine this package with
[`mdast-util-gfm`][mdast-util-gfm].

All these packages are used in [`remark-gfm`][remark-gfm], which focusses on
making it easier to transform content by abstracting these internals away.

## Install

This package is [ESM only][esm].
In Node.js (version 16+), install with [npm][]:

```sh
npm install micromark-extension-gfm
```

In Deno with [`esm.sh`][esmsh]:

```js
import {gfm, gfmHtml} from 'https://esm.sh/micromark-extension-gfm@3'
```

In browsers with [`esm.sh`][esmsh]:

```html
<script type="module">
  import {gfm, gfmHtml} from 'https://esm.sh/micromark-extension-gfm@3?bundle'
</script>
```

## Use

Say our document `example.md` contains:

```markdown
# GFM

## Autolink literals

www.example.com, https://example.com, and contact@example.com.

## Footnote

A note[^1]

[^1]: Big note.

## Strikethrough

~one~ or ~~two~~ tildes.

## Table

| a | b  |  c |  d  |
| - | :- | -: | :-: |

## Tag filter

<plaintext>

## Tasklist

* [ ] to do
* [x] done
```

…and our module `example.js` looks as follows:

```js
import fs from 'node:fs/promises'
import {micromark} from 'micromark'
import {gfm, gfmHtml} from 'micromark-extension-gfm'

const output = micromark(await fs.readFile('example.md'), {
  allowDangerousHtml: true,
  extensions: [gfm()],
  htmlExtensions: [gfmHtml()]
})

console.log(output)
```

…now running `node example.js` yields:

```html
<h1>GFM</h1>
<h2>Autolink literals</h2>
<p><a href="http://www.example.com">www.example.com</a>, <a href="https://example.com">https://example.com</a>, and <a href="mailto:contact@example.com">contact@example.com</a>.</p>
<h2>Footnote</h2>
<p>A note<sup><a href="#user-content-fn-1" id="user-content-fnref-1" data-footnote-ref="" aria-describedby="footnote-label">1</a></sup></p>
<h2>Strikethrough</h2>
<p><del>one</del> or <del>two</del> tildes.</p>
<h2>Table</h2>
<table>
<thead>
<tr>
<th>a</th>
<th align="left">b</th>
<th align="right">c</th>
<th align="center">d</th>
</tr>
</thead>
</table>
<h2>Tag filter</h2>
&lt;plaintext>
<h2>Tasklist</h2>
<ul>
<li><input type="checkbox" disabled="" /> to do</li>
<li><input type="checkbox" disabled="" checked="" /> done</li>
</ul>
<section data-footnotes="" class="footnotes"><h2 id="footnote-label" class="sr-only">Footnotes</h2>
<ol>
<li id="user-content-fn-1">
<p>Big note. <a href="#user-content-fnref-1" data-footnote-backref="" class="data-footnote-backref" aria-label="Back to content">↩</a></p>
</li>
</ol>
</section>
```

## API

This package exports the identifiers [`gfm`][api-gfm] and
[`gfmHtml`][api-gfm-html].
There is no default export.

The separate extensions support the [`development` condition][development].
Run `node --conditions development module.js` to get instrumented dev code.
Without this condition, production code is loaded.

## Types

This package is fully typed with [TypeScript][].
It exports the additional types [`HtmlOptions`][api-html-options] and
[`Options`][api-options].

## Compatibility

Projects maintained by the unified collective are compatible with maintained
versions of Node.js.

When we cut a new major release, we drop support for unmaintained versions of
Node.
This means we try to keep the current release line,
`micromark-extension-gfm@^3`, compatible with Node.js 16.

This package works with `micromark` version `3` and later.

## Security

This package is safe.
Setting `clobberPrefix = ''` is dangerous, it opens you up to DOM clobbering.
The `labelTagName` and `labelAttributes` options are unsafe when used with user
content, they allow defining arbitrary HTML.

## Contribute

See [`contributing.md` in `micromark/.github`][contributing] for ways to get
started.
See [`support.md`][support] for ways to get help.

This project has a [code of conduct][coc].
