I am not aware of any direct Markdown -> PDF converters. What do you have in mind?
pandoc makes use of Latex, which is extremely bulky and brings with it a lot of complexity and idiosyncrasies.
I was not able to get anything as nice as a GitHub rendering out of that.
The only alternative I know is using web technologies (chrome headless) to produce a PDF, which is what the author does.
