  7. markdownlint

    A Node.js style checker and lint tool for Markdown/CommonMark files.

    Project mention: "How I Cut My Go Markdown Linter's Benchmark by 81%" | dev.to | 2026-05-26

    The main alternative most teams reach for is markdownlint, which works well but requires a Node.js runtime. For Go projects running in a lean CI environment, pulling in Node.js just to lint Markdown felt like the wrong tradeoff. gomarklint ships as a standalone binary installable via Homebrew, npm, or go install, and integrates with GitHub Actions and pre-commit out of the box.

  8. remarkable

    Markdown parser, done right. Commonmark support, extensions, syntax plugins, high speed - all in one. Gulp and metalsmith plugins available. Used by Facebook, Docusaurus and many others!
