Using Rust with Elixir for code reuse and performance
It turned out that making the most popular Elixir Markdown processor, Earmark (originally written by Dave Thomas) and pulldown-cmark, a Rust Markdown processor, produce the same output was going to be difficult. We also required some customization that was not available in both libraries.

I’m building a self-hosted MailChimp alternative - Which features do you think are essential?
Even if at some point I’ll add proper WYSIWYG, Keila will definitely keep supporting Markdown. I personally find it super convenient and you get a very nice plain-text version for free. Keila uses an Elixir lib, Earmark for Markdown processing and that means we are supporting GitHub-style markdown.

Using Rust with Elixir for code reuse and performance
I wonder if they looked into using https://github.com/asaaki/cmark.ex which is an already made Markdown Elixir NIF written in C. No glue code needed since the package already exists.
Back when I was writing Elixir, it's what I used to process Markdown and it was also substantially faster than the native Elixir Markdown library (Earmark).
