    I watch your videos. I am in the process of moving from pandoc+latex to pandoc+groff, but am considering neatroff+md2roff (or md2pdf) after watching your videos.

    As somebody noted, lowdown outputs roff both as a library and a standalone utility. (I'm the author.) The actual roff bits (it handles -ms and -man, with the former optionally using -mspdf and the latter, groff extensions) are in nroff.c.
