How do you guys go about making websites the suckless way?
Note: you’ll need Perl installed if you want to use the canonical Markdown.pl script called by bashblog. I instead use smu from the suckless.org site and change the script to call that as a lighter weight solution.

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).
What are some alternatives?
When comparing smu and cmark you can also consider the following projects:
bashblog - A single Bash script to create blogs. Download, run, write, done!
earmark - Markdown parser for Elixir
Down - Blazing fast Markdown / CommonMark rendering in Swift, built upon cmark.
Markdown - A simple Elixir Markdown to HTML conversion library
