Build documentation

williamjcm opened this issue · comments

I know this project hasn't been updated in nearly 3 years, but would it be possible to get some building documentation ?

I wanted to use this library because it had styling support, unlike cpp-markdown, but the lack of proper building documentation can be a bit off-putting.

Well, it's got both a makefile and an Xcode project; and there are just four headers and four source files.

The dependencies are Boost, Hoedown [a C Markdown engine], and V8 [a JavaScript interpreter]. You can install those with your favorite package manager.

Unfortunately this is too heavyweight for me; I don't care for Boost, and V8 is way too big to drag into my project just to do theming. I am going to look at using hoedown directly.
