Module parse 

Markdown → Doc.

CommonMark nests; a Doc does not. Indent counts list nesting only:

• a list item’s first paragraph becomes its marker block (bullet, ordered, task) at one level shallower than the open list count, and anything else in that item becomes a child at the list count itself;
• a blockquote’s paragraphs each become a BlockKind::Quote, every one of them carrying the GFM alert kind the blockquote opened with. Being inside a quote decides a block’s kind, never its depth — an indent a blockquote contributed could not be reproduced in the output, and the document would move every time it was read;
• everything else keeps its kind at the open list count.

Mixed containers therefore flatten: > - a yields a bullet and loses the quote. That is the cost of the flat model, and the fixed-point test in [crate::serialize] is what keeps it from mattering — whatever the first parse decides is stable from then on.

The parse also normalizes what markdown itself would not preserve: leading and trailing whitespace per line, blank lines at a block’s edges, headings and table cells flattened to one line, and ordered runs renumbered consecutively. Each of those is a place where writing the document back out and reading it again would otherwise land somewhere new.

Functions

is_image

Whether a URL or a path names a picture, by the only thing either says about itself without being fetched — its extension, against what gpui can decode.

is_url

Whether source is exactly one bare URL, and nothing else.

parse

Parse a markdown document.

parse_at

Parse markdown, and say where offset in it landed in the document.

parse_with

parse with the app’s own marks — see crate::Marks.
