A screenshot of the UI would've been nice in the README. Benchmarks are hard to evaluate without a comparison to pandoc or other solutions.

Still, neat project. I love small, pointed software

Nice work. I’m curious how you handle edge cases like large tables, nested lists, and code blocks while keeping the implementation so lightweight.
