Render lists, code, equations, ... via PHP

Hello,

is there some PHP code that converts an API response message including lists, code, equations, … to nice HTML output?

E.g.

`some code`

to

<code>some code</code>

Thanks for your support
Andreas

You need Markdown to HTML conversion:

parsedown.org

Better Markdown Parser in PHP

Fast and extensible Markdown parser in PHP. It supports GitHub Flavored Markdown and it adheres to CommonMark.

Parser for Markdown and Markdown Extra derived from the original Markdown.pl by John Gruber. - GitHub - michelf/php-markdown: Parser for Markdown and Markdown Extra derived from the original Markdo...

Those should be a good start.

Thank you very much Brian. Two great tips. Michelf is good but Parsedown is even better. Especially concerning ordered lists and code. That’s where Michelf fails (e.g. 1. 1. 1. … instead of 1. 2. 3. …).
