mholt said that Markdown support can be enhanced in a comment above (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9453216).

There exists a native Go package to render GFM, see second from the top at https://github.com/avelino/awesome-go#text-processing.

I've been looking at your GFM package, looks good! It's on my roadmap for possible future integration. I also want to see support for the kind of Markdown files that Hugo serves, with front matter. So there's lots of possibilities for the Markdown middleware right now.
Not to sound ungrateful. But would it be possible to split your GFM package into its own repo? Because it's currently a PITA to vendor because it pulls half the world with it?
Absolutely, that's a fair request.

Someone has already opened an issue about it at https://github.com/shurcooL/go/issues/19, and I'm planning to take care of it.

Edit: Oh, I guess that was you.
