myst parser
Domain: Documentation
🎯 Motivation
myst-parser is the sphinx extension that enables Markdown input. It translates Markdown files into sphinx’s internal document model, unlocking directives, cross-references, and extensions that plain Markdown cannot do.
📋 Concrete Example
You add extensions = ["myst_parser"] to conf.py, and now sphinx accepts .md files alongside .rst, letting your team write docs in Markdown.
🔗 Analogy
myst-parser is like a translator who converts your casual notes (Markdown) into the formal language sphinx understands, so your notes get the full royal treatment.
