ghmarkdown
==========

| |PyPi version|

The complete command-line tool for GitHub-flavored markdown. It provides
a convenient interface for the API provided by GitHub.

ghmarkdown's ``--serve`` feature let's you locally view your markdown
**live**, so you can view your changes as you work!

Run your markdown on a local server:

Parse your markdown to HTML locally:

.. code:: bash
