I&amp;rsquo;m a big fan of the &lt;a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markdown"&gt;Markdown&lt;/a&gt; markup language, but sometimes I need to exchange documents with people who don&amp;rsquo;t know how to read them.
Often, they prefer just Word or PDF.

&lt;p&gt;My current solution is based on &lt;a href="https://nodejs.org/en/"&gt;Node.js&lt;/a&gt; so you need to &lt;a href="https://nodejs.org/en/download/"&gt;install&lt;/a&gt; that first.
