Switch to Markdown-it?

[motleydev]

It seems like marked as a renderer is dying/being-abandoned. As best as I can tell markdown-it is the most similar replacement. Maybe it's time to implement a new renderer or allow a BYO-renderer api?

@motleydev That would be great :) I am in lack of time these days, but would love to get contributions on this. Basically two things:

1. Update markdown renderer
2. Find a JSX transpiler only... babel-standalone has a bunch of stuff in it that is not needed

I will get back to the project as soon as I get my head over water :)

Looks like marked is getting more attention: markedjs/marked#1106

However, supporting JSX syntax is likely not a priority: markedjs/marked#1194 (comment)
