  Description     : Pure Haskell commonmark parser

This library provides the core data types and functions
for parsing commonmark (<https://spec.commonmark.org>).
The parser is fully commonmark-compliant and passes the test
suite.  It is designed to be customizable and easily extensible.
To customize the output, create an AST, or support a new output
format, one need only define some new typeclass instances.
It is also easy to add new syntax elements or modify existing ones.

Accurate information about source positions is available
for all block and inline elements.  Thus the library can be
used to create an accurate syntax highlighter or
an editor with live preview.

The parser has been designed for robust performance
even in pathological cases that tend to cause stack overflows or
exponential slowdowns in other parsers, with parsing speed that
varies linearly with input length.

  - commonmark-pandoc (which allows using this parser to create a
Pandoc
    structure)
  - commonmark-cli (a command-line tool for converting and
    syntax-highlighting commonmark documents)
