I have been dogfooding this npx tool to build all my markdown content sites. It allows me to start a site within minutes. As it's just `npx zenmd && netlify deploy` without downloading any framework starter kit, cloning any repo, or generating any folder structure with configs.

It's built on remark.js, supports images, [[wikilinks]], and raw html in markdown, as well as custom layout.html customizations. Once the site is built, you can open the output `.html` pages without a server to preview.

Demo: here is a post expanding on the "whys" on my personal site (built with ZenMD) - https://idealistspace.com/zenmd

Just made the Github repo: https://github.com/randomor/zenmd public if you'd like to look at the code.
