I've been trying to put together a blog for myself and a point comes when one needs to start thinking about strategies to store the blogs somewhere. One common strategy you find in a lot of tutorials is using some third-party library that parses markdown to the desired semantic, for eg. react-markdown . Now, speaking of the goods of such a library, it (hopefully) tackles the security concerns that come with letting external HTML render on a site. This is the security concern that leads to dangerous function names such as dangerouslySetInnerHTML, quoting the react docs , just " to remind yourself that it’s dangerous " . On a serious note, XSS attacks can be a major pain in the posterior. Apart from that, such libraries also eliminate the need to implement your own markdown parser.
