Using Earmark, I’m trying to parse HTML inside markdown code blocks so that they can be syntax-highlighted. I’m having a bit of a rough time with it and, admittedly, I could probably stand to spend a bit more time trying to figure it out myself but I feel I’m maybe on the wrong path as it stands so…
