Show HN: Build a Markdown‑to‑HTML Compiler in Rust to Learn the Language

A developer posted a Show HN project that teaches Rust through a practical example. The project implements a compiler that converts Markdown text into HTML. Writing the compiler requires handling parsing, tokenization, and code generation in Rust. The codebase is available as an online tutorial and source repository. The approach demonstrates Rust’s safety and performance features. Readers can follow the step‑by‑step guide to build their own compiler. The project aims to help newcomers gain hands‑on experience with Rust. It invites feedback and contributions from the HN community.
