static-site markdown helper

markdown-it.js

var md = require('markdown-it')({
  html: true,
  linkify: true,
  typographer: true,
  quotes: '“”‘’'
})
.use(require('markdown-it-highlightjs'))
.use(require('markdown-it-footnote'))
.use(require('markdown-it-emoji'))
.use(require('markdown-it-container'), 'figure')

var typogr = require('typogr');

module.exports = function (site, cb) {
  site = site.map(function (page) {
    console.log(page.isMarkdown)
    if (page.isMarkdown) {
      page.content = md.render(page.content)
      page.content = typogr.typogrify(page.content)
    }
    return page
  })
  cb(null, site)
}

tons of markdown goodies like footnotes, tables, and custom div classes, emoji, and all the proper typography options you could ever need.

@nikolaswise so this is no template engine, then use this helper?
