Quarkdown: Markdown with Superpowers

Quarkdown could be amazing, but they’re not doing a good job of selling it with such an awful, unusable website.

The Latex to Quarkdown comparison in the github README[0] is a much better introduction than the slide show.<p>Or, maybe I&#x27;m just an old and ornery programmer who frequently says in his head &quot;GET TO THE POINT!&quot;<p>[0]: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;iamgio&#x2F;quarkdown?tab=readme-ov-file#comparison">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;iamgio&#x2F;quarkdown?tab=readme-ov-file#compa...</a>

Very interesting. If people keeps creating their own extensions of Markdown it&#x27;s because there&#x27;s a need somewhere for a comprehensive markup language. Markdown wasn&#x27;t invented with documentation in mind, for example, so now we have rST, Asciidoc, Markdoc, Djot, etc. I really wish a powerful standard emerged, though.

Unfortunately the result prevents me from zooming in on mobile, so I can&#x27;t see the code examples.

Each complication over Markdown is utterly interesting to me. Tho I never stick at one due to diffusion

Navigate with the Right-Arrow key or by clicking the arrow in the bottom right corner.

I like it. It&#x27;s not complex but you can do complex stuff. It is why I use AsciiDoc. I don&#x27;t think creating a new (and better) markdown will win hearts... yes it is nice but you need to compete with a lot of attempts to improve it. ... relevant XKCD: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;xkcd.com&#x2F;927&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;xkcd.com&#x2F;927&#x2F;</a>

At the end of each slide animation, the slide seems to jump a few pixels.<p>I&#x27;m on Firefox.

but, i have org-mode already!

this looks very nice though it also is close to typst. a comparison would be interesting.

I misread &quot;quark&quot; as &quot;quirk&quot; and thought to myself &quot;please don&#x27;t bring back IE &#x27;quirk mode&#x27;&quot;

No! Markdown is made to be simple. Don’t use it for complex projects. Use properly thought out markup languages for that, like Asciidoc.

I guess OP never get why there is markdown in first place. Why another scripting lang inside Markdown which suppose to be readble , natural to write , easy to render.<p>```<p>.function {greet}<p><pre><code> to from: \*Hello, .to\* from .from! </code></pre> .greet {world} from:{Giorgio}<p>```<p>No Hell No , You don&#x27;t need that in a markdown-like doc. If you want that just use HTML with js. or MDSvex .
