Specific Demand

Would be great to provide markdown rendering support in dufs, like in https://github.com/brson/basic-http-server

Implement Suggestion

md-block: Render styleable Markdown in your HTML is great.

I found an easy way to do it:

In assets folder, in index.html add between <head></head>: <script type="module" src="__ASSETS_PREFIX__markdown/md-block.js"></script>

Extract markdown folder (it's basically offline md-block/marked.js/dompurify) folder in assets folder. You could also fetch JS using a CDN but I do not like it (and my dufs instance must work offline too).

Then add <md-block untrusted src="README.md"></md-block> to render README.mdwhen one exists in folder.

Don't know if you would be interested in implementing it, it's extra JS and it's probably a niche.

I'm personally satisfied by my workaround :) So I posted an issue so it could be useful for others.

Feed free to close it, and many thanks for dufs! <3

@sigoden commented on GitHub (Oct 30, 2024):

Dufs will never treat any file differently.

Users who need markdown rendering should use a custom UI.
