Blade Component to Render Markdown in Laravel

Laravel Markdown is a highly configurable markdown renderer and Blade component for Laravel by the folks at Spatie:

🚀 Using our newly released laravel-markdown package, you can easily render markdown to HTML. https://t.co/LdQL57c5Gg

Code snippets in your markdown will be perfectly highlighted by Shiki (PHP, Blade, JS, …), which is also used by VSCode

The package features a blade component that can render Markdown in blade templates, for example:

<x-markdown>
# My title

This is a [link to our website](https://spatie.be)

```php
echo 'Hello world';
```
</x-markdown>

Would be converted to the following HTML:

<div>
    <h1 id="my-title">My title</h1>
    <p>This is a <a href="https://spatie.be">link to our website</a></p>
    <pre class="shiki" style="background-color: #fff"><code><span class="line"><span
        style="color: #005CC5">echo</span><span style="color: #24292E"> </span><span style="color: #032F62">&#39;Hello world&#39;</span><span
        style="color: #24292E">;</span></span>
<span class="line"></span></code></pre>
</div>

In addition to rendering markdown, this package helps you set up syntax highlighting (using Shiki via Shiki PHP) and is highly configurable. Some interesting configuration options include automatically adding anchor links to headers, toggling code highlighting, and configuring the theme used for syntax highlighting.

Check out the markdown.php configuration file for further details on all the configuration options available for this package.
