Module pymdown_blocks 

PyMdown Extensions Blocks detection utilities

This module provides detection for PyMdown Extensions “Blocks” syntax which uses /// markers to create structured content blocks.

Common patterns:

• /// caption - Caption block for figures/tables
• /// details | Summary title - Collapsible content
• /// admonition | Title - Admonition with custom title
• /// html | div - HTML wrapper block
• /// - Closing marker

Blocks can have YAML options indented 4 spaces after the header line:

/// caption
    attrs: {id: my-id}
Caption text
///

Supported block types: caption, figure-caption, details, admonition, html, definition, tab
